Remember what I said about magnetic fields being perpendicular to the direction of the current?

InTheSea:

so... left?

Shadow:

Perpendicular means 90 degrees, which is a right angle.

InTheSea:

North east sideways a little to the left just past my neighbors dog?

So it should be north or south. My guess would be north. Not sure since I've never studied this lol.
