    I saw today that we lost power for a few seconds here in Norway
    I talked with someone in Italy and reported the same thing

    After I checked out at spaceweather.com and saw that solar activity was very large in Europe

    Could that be the cause of knocked out the electricity for just a few seconds?
    If you live in Europe, did you noticed it too?
    It was not so many minutes ago

    GEOMAGNETIC STORM IN PROGRESS

    Kp Index Level is at stage 5

    Scale = G2

    Moderate Level

    Power systems: weak power grid fluctuations can occur.

    Spacecraft operations: minor impact on satellite operations possible.

    Other systems: migratory animals are affected at this and higher levels; aurora is commonly visible at high latitudes.
