That altered my brain chemistry, new handsfree sketcher slipped its likes lipids have an invisible builtin shoehorn. So my foot slides into place, mind blown will begin to sow with the powerful Geomagnetic Storm happening right now, the solar storm is classified as extreme luck level five out of five, it hasnt got to this level in more than 20 years and it is causing the northern and Southern Lights two decimal in many places that rarely, if ever see them well take a look at the sky above parts of florida a short time ago, quite a Remarkable Sayyed The Burmese State North of the tropics most of the midwest and even the null than california region have had a high chance of seeing the aurora. And the skies over the uk also lit up in vivid colors earlier friday night, parts of europe and asia are likely to have another chance to view the lights on saturday this southern hemisphere, the overall australias were spotted over new zealand as well as argentina. Of course it all started when the sun erupted with a series of solar flares and whats known as Coronal Mass Ejections, launching particles directly at the earth when those particles reach the Magnetic Field and atmospheric creates this spectacular light shows that were witnessing. While the lights are expected to reach their peak activities, our and into the morning until sunrise. The storm will likely continue throughout the weekend well the Biden Administration is closely tracking and storms it could disrupt communications, satellites, and power stations. Electrical utilities, and making preparations. Just in case what canada is no stranger to the stunning views from Geomagnetic Storms. But this one is intense. Cnns paula newton is just outside the capital of ottawa was you might have guessed the Northern Lights are more of a common occurrence in canada and the storms, the solar storms do not even have to be as severe here as the one we are seeing now the issue though is here normally the kinds of colors that youre seeing in the sky or greenish or a milky green kind of colors. Some people report seeing some blue. This time with these spectacular colors, many people across canada who do not have cloud cover, well be looking looking towards the sky and continue to look through the sky because of those spectacular colors that we are not used to seeing. The other thing people are keeping an eye on. Of course, is whether or not there will be any disruptions through anything technical, whether its the Electrical Grid or anything else in 1989 and the province of quebec . There was quite a widespread power outage that scientists still study today. But back then, they did not have the Satellite Technology that they have now, they have reinforced those infrastructure grids, but also they have more sensors, more Satellite Technology. They know a little bit more about what is going itd be happening with the solar storms and have a bit more of a prediction in terms of what will happen. So far, no disruptions throughout canada except people will be disrupted in their sleep as they continue to look skyward, looking for those spectacular colors paula newton, cnn, don robin, ontario im joined now by storm chaser at logan parham. Hugh was lucky enough to capture this historic phenomenon in the comfort of his own backyard in hastings, florida. Good to have you with us its a pleasure so just describe what you saw, what you caught on camera well, i headed out there because i knew it was going to happen tonight and there was at least somewhat of a chance and went out there, snapped a photo and realized that it was only going to get more intense and it just blew my mind completely and totally because this far south and florida, thats not something that, you know, we usually see ever definitely probably once in a lifetime event. So it was it was absolutely gorgeous. I mean, the colors are just really bright, pink and purple. What were your filming on . Its believe it or not, that was just my iphone right there. Yeah. I might turn it down to open nia exposure, give it, give it longer time to let that light into the lens and it really draws out the colors. But i will say it being so dark out here, out in the country, you can actually see a lot of that pink purple with your naked eye. Yeah, exactly. Not around any sort of highrises that my impact, what youre saying. And of course you typically chase hurricanes and tornadoes. Have you ever chased the award before . No ive never really considered it or given any thought, but i definitely would now and i just happen to be lucky enough to have one here and it is the first time for me and it was definitely a a unique experience that i would love to do again, for sure and as of course, like, how does this compat they sort of images that you took to what youve captured in the past, where you chasing these quite dramatic storms well i will say, it, was a lot more calm than what im used to. So that was it was a good switch up, no doubt. But i lose just beautiful and again, like you said, ive seen some very violent weather some, some truly impressive things out there. But this was just totally mindblowing, totally unexpected. And its, its up there on my list for sure and sorry, ligand is this like storm chasing your day job . Is this or this is the hobby . Just describe your background for us so so right now its, its kind of a hobby. Im working on getting it to the point where it could be my job. Im actually in school right now, working toward my meteorology degree. So to kind of build that foundation and whatnot, but thats the ultimate goal. So ive been doing it for quite a few years now. And so what do you know about this Geomagnetic Storm cell and just how unusual it is obviously, you wouldnt have say one probably knew last time its at least 20 years since the last major solo song what do you know about this . So im going to be completely honest with you. I dont know much. I just i heard some few other friends of mine who are talking about it and i was like, you know what, i guess if theres a chance, lets go see it of course, i specialize and atmospheric whether so it was there was a difference, big difference. Yeah, its i mean, this shot. See you got would just amazing how long ago did you come inside and i shame you probably go back out again tomorrow night thank you yes and, now that ive researched a little bit more about it, im definitely going to keep my eye out. Ive already pumped out. There are a few more times i havent seen anything yet. Weve been a little bit to cloud covered from some storms that went through here a little bit earlier. But im keeping my eye out for sure. And its definitely a beautiful experience so if any of your friends or anyone still awake right now in florida, can i see it if they go outside i believe that certain areas may be able to its really dependent on cloud cover. And of course, a lot of people get caught up on the cloud cover, but they forget to remember Light Pollution so if you live near a big city or your turn off your porch lights, look up, get that view away from those city lights. If you can help it. And thats going to maximize your chances seeing that so we got some great sets, their logan time.

Im in paris and washington, and this is cnn a ban into kincaid, israels Security Cabinet has approved an expansion of the area of curation and rafah than 1 million displaced Palestinian Civilians have taken refuge there. In addition to the population who lived there before the conflict you white house report says its quite reasonable to assess that Israeli Forces have used us weapons in gaza in ways inconsistent with International Humanitarian law. The report stopped short of saying israel violated international law, but its sharply critical of the toll in gaza. Part of the report says, well, israel has the knowledge, experience, and tools to implement Best Practices for mitigating civilian harm in its Military Operations the results on the ground, including high level of civilian casualties, raise substantial questions as to whether the idf is using them effectively in all cases us law prevents washington from providing weapons to Security Forces credibly accused of gross Human Rights Violations cnns Jeremy Diamond is in jerusalem with the latest on israels operations in gaza well, the writ of between the United States and israel over a potential major Israeli Ground offensive into rafah is showing no signs of narrowing one day after President Biden threatened to withhold additional us weapons shipments to israel if it proceeds with an allout Ground Offensive into rafah, the Israeli Security cabinet greenlighting a quote, unquote, expansion of the area of operation in rafah. Thats according to one israeli official who i spoke with now, this decision by the Security Cabinet effectively empowers the israeli war cabinet. Thats Smaller Group that has been and making the major decisions about the conduct of the war in gaza. It empowers the war cabinet to expand Military Operations and rafah to make decisions about that military expansion. This is not an indication of an imminent expansion of Israeli Military activity in rafah, although it is clear that israel does intend to do so, the question at this point is when and how big will that expansion be . President biden made clear that hes talking about on allout Offensive One that would impact the Major Population Centers in rafah. The most densely Populated Areas where some 1. 4 million palestinians are currently sheltering many of them displaced from other parts of gaza, sometimes once, twice, three times, even. Now, what we are already witnessing on the ground though, is significant. The Israeli Military is calling it a limited Military Operation in Eastern Rafah that has resulted in the closure of the rafah border crossing, which is in that area of Eastern Rafah. But even that limited middle Military Operation is already resulting in major impacts on the ground. Unrwa estimates that some 110,000 palestinians have been displaced from rafah, forced to flee north and what theyre finding when they do go north, Art Conditions that humanitarian aid official say simply arent adequate for the number for of people who are flooding into that humanitarian zone as the Israeli Military is calling it, this is the almawasi area it is sandy. It is a coastal area and theres simply is not Running Water in many parts of this area. Theres no sewage, electricity, and people are really being forced to live intense and makeshift shelters on the sides of the road. Now, we know that this situation is already bad, but theres warnings now from the United Nations that the situation could get that much worse. The United Nations secretary general, Antonio Guterres warning that this will be a quote, unquote, epic humanitarian disaster if the Israeli Military proceeds at all our Military Offensive in rafah. Jeremy diamond, Cnn Jerusalem with the United NationsGeneral Assembly has overwhelmingly approved a Measure Cooling on the Security Council to reconsider palestinian membership the voigt was 143 to nine with 25 countries abstaining the measure also grants the Palestinian Authority new rights and privileges at the un they wont have a vote, but they will be able to submit and introduce proposals and amendments all our flag flies high and proud in palestine and across the globe and on the campus of Columbia University it has become a symbol raised my, all those who believe in freedom.
