    I wonder if this geomagnetic storm is setting off fire evacuation alarms in the city, or if people are just extra unlucky burning their toast this morning.

        Yeah I wonder if there have been any anomalous readings at the peer companies. But as far as I know nothing much yet except aurora

      There has not been a particularly high volume of alarms this morning, it must just be randomly near you.

        Just an unlucky streak for the buildings near me I guess.

        It’s nothing too crazy or worrisome. We’re just in the path of a few strong sun farts, the kind that make aurora more visible and can sometimes mess with electronics on earth.
