I see the storm began yesterday afternoon around 4 p.m. PST, so it certainly
would have affected the region of California. Your comment on the effect of
solar (and implied geomagnetic) activity in your prediction was a nice touch
since today's events seem to have independently suggested that.
This is a typical swarm near Coso, and may continue for several more days.
Several more events of ML>3 are likely before the 19th of July.
And Don, don't eat HAGIS for supper, I think I read a post from Cathryn
offering to take you out for supper. (That'll keep the old tummy from rumbling for sure!!)
