There has been a lot of activity from the sun lately.

**** SPACE WEATHER OUTLOOK ****

Summary For November 1-7
Category R1 (minor) on 01, 03, 04, 05, and 06 November, category R2
(moderate) on 03, 04, and 06 November, and category R3 (strong) on 07
November radio blackouts were observed due to a burst of solar flare
activity from active sunspot Region 696. Category G1 (minor), G2
(moderate), and G3 (strong) geomagnetic storming occurred on 07
November due to clouds of magnetic material from solar flares on the
Sun that impacted Earth. Category S1 (minor) and S2 (moderate) on 01
November and category S1 (minor) on 07 – 08 November solar radiation
storms were observed due to solar flare activity from active sunspot
regions on the Sun.

Outlook For November 10-16
Category R1 (minor) and R2 (moderate) radio blackouts are possible from
active sunspot Region 696. There is a chance for category G1 (minor),
G2 (moderate), and G3 (strong) geomagnetic storms due to clouds of
magnetic material from solar flares on the Sun and from high speed
solar winds from a coronal hole on the Sun. Category S1 (minor) solar
radiation storms are possible with major solar flare activity from
active sunspot Region 696.

Has anyone observed any aurora around the lake? Keep a lookout over the next few nights as the activity is expected to continue.
