Solar Storms Cause Tractors to Malfunction, Farmers Report 'Demon Possession'

TL;DR Summary
Massive solar storms have disrupted GPS systems in high-tech tractors across America, causing them to behave erratically, as charged particles from the Sun interfere with the Earth's ionosphere. This has led to significant challenges for farmers who rely on GPS for precise farming operations. The issue is exacerbated by the current peak in the Sun's 11-year cycle, with more solar activity expected, potentially affecting more farmers who now depend on GPS technology.
