Good morning S0's, 29* and sunny here in northern NC, highs aren't expected to get out of the 30's today. Solar flares yet no Sun Spots visible, don't think I've seen that before. Stay warm and have a great Friday, y'all !

Good morning every0ne =) Thank you for the space weather news today and every day Ben and team! Everyone's contribution is a beautiful way to spend my morning coffee time =) Gratitude for everyone =) Currently we are at 6.2C and overcast, hazy skies.

Hi all. UK south coast (Dorset). 9 degrees C, wind SW at 14 mph, humidity 74%. It's a sunny day here today, with blue skies and little cloud. I watched an interesting documentry last night about Jupiter. It seems that it's in the wrong place ( it actually wandered around a bit before setting up home where it is). And that we are missing a planet in our solar system (it got thrown out by Jupiter). There also  a bit about space water as well. How accurate this is, will be will no doubt be hotly debated by the scientific community of course, but it was interesting.  It's available on the BBC iplayer, and may be on  BBC worldwide as well, for anyone interested.
