If you need a second magazine, its time to call in air support.

Nope, it's nothing serious.  It might effect radio propagation on certain frequencies.  And you might be able to see an aurora a little father south, but that's about it.

Yesterday afternoon, I tuned through all the bands from 80 to 6 meters and found that there was a ton of European stations coming in on 12 and 10 meters. I didn't check after dark so I don't know if the lower end of HF did anything. I think that the only thing that will happen is there will be a good opportunity to catch some rare DX.
