Your three mile link is probably not being affected by CME.  The Canadians
have disaster recovery plans for such events.  Some of the largest grid
failures and satellite communication failures are caused by such phenomenon.
I'd worry more if I was one of the guys running 20 mile links for backhaul,
was responsible for rural overhead long haul lines, or pipelines.  However,
it is always best to be aware in case we do see some odd things which with
the diversity of this group are likely.  Northern latitudes could be
impacted more than southern.  If you live in a dark area, look for the
Aurora Borealis tonight.

Friendly Regards,

Thanks Mike for posting this. It's probably easier to see my other
post than to readdress here but basically I'm seeing very bad latency
on one particular link. Not that 3 miles is long, as all my other
links are working well which includes several over 10 miles.
