+<h1>Aurora in Jamno, October 2024</h1>
+</header>

+<article>
+<p>On 9th of October early UTC an X1.8 solar flare was observed along with a halo coronal mass ejection associated with
+it. They were produced by sunspot region 3848. At that time the region was in a nearly perfect Earth-facing position.
+Because of the region position and coronagraph imagery CME was estimated to hit Earth and do it quite fast. Space
+Weather Prediction Center announced G4 stormwatch for the next day.
+<p>Regular weather predictions were quite saddening. AROME and COSMO models were provoking me by showing fast moving
+clouds and potential periods of clear sky between 22:00 and midnight CEST. Eyeballing the clouds gave similar impression
+and so I decided to gamble on it. Once SWPC posted first information on a million kilometres mark I packed my stuff and
+drove off to a middle of a field despite having a stratus blanket over the head.
+<p>Gamble paid off.

+<p>Photos are in chronological order and I tried to select them in a way to represent each unique phase of the show. I
+setup around 22:00 CEST and left 01:32. I had hot tea and hot shower and I didn't get ill the next day.
+<p>I tried to experiment with camera settings this time. The results are slightly out of focus. Now I know. I think.
+<p>Once SWPC summary of the event is posted I'll try to put the link here just like the last time. If you spot it in the
+wild and it's not here, please send me an e-mail.
