*WEIRD ATMOSPHERIC WAVE RIPPLES OVER CHINA:* On Nov. 24th, a
deep-rippling wave at the edge of space crossed the night sky above
China. Eye-witnesses saw the airglow layer split in two, and at least
one photographer captured beautiful images of the event. It might be a
type of exotic wave called a "mesospheric bore." Visit Spaceweather.com

*UNEXPECTED SOLAR FLARES:* Catching forecasters off guard, a new sunspot
(AR2615) has emerged and it is crackling with M-class solar flares.
Minor radio blackouts are underway on Nov. 29-30 as pulses of UV and
X-radiation ionize the top of Earth's atmosphere. This is *not* a major
space weather event, but it is a break from the sun's recent deepening
quiet.
