In 1859, the world got its first taste of being in the direct path of a solar storm, affecting worldwide communications.
Today, we got our second taste.
Shelby Hughes' day is off to a rough start and it doesn't seem like it will improve anytime soon. Sitting at work, in a nearly dark cube and hearing the panicked voices of her co-workers, Shelby wants to bang her head on her desk - her father has finally been proven right. Grabbing the go-bag from the bottom drawer of her file cabinet, she crosses to the windows, looking out across Seattle's 5th Avenue. With the city at a standstill, she takes a moment to make a quick list:
Find a bike.
Find her son.
Get on the road.
Prepare to eat crow when she gets to her father's house.
And pray like hell that her daughter makes it there.
In a world without electricity, Shelby is determined to do what she's always done - make the best life for her children, no matter what stands in her way.
