Remember the song about the Edmund Fitzgerald ? Here is the radio transmission to the coast guard about its' disappearance.



Click here to hear the captain of the Arthur M. Anderson reporting the suspected loss to the Coast Guard that night.

Seems like every year on the anniversary of the E.F. disaster, the weather on the lakes is dark and stormy. At least in Chicago on Lake Michigan. (Although the E.F. went down on Superior, I believe.)

Stonecrusher and I were talking the other night about this ship. He found this and sent it to me. I thought the forum would be interested in it.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
