  • Unanticipated CME hit causes G3 – Strong geomagnetic storm

    Our planet is still under the influence of coronal hole high speed solar wind speed (CH HSS) which is fueling geomagnetic storming around the poles. Additionally, an unanticipated Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) passed the ACE spacecraft and Earth around 05:30 UTC today

  • Earth under the influence of high speed solar wind stream

    Earth is currently under the influence of a high speed solar wind stream originating in large southern coronal hole. Although the bulk of this stream is headed south of our planet, we have already experienced severe geomagnetic storm periods at high latitudes.Geomagneti

  • G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm underway

    Earth is currently under the influence of a coronal hole high speed solar wind stream (CH HSS) which is causing geomagnetic storming around the poles.K-index of 5 (G1-Minor) threshold was reached at 17:18 UTC today. Area of impact is primarily poleward of 60 degrees Geo
