A recurrent, negative-polarity coronal hole is affecting our planet, causing geomagnetic storming. A G2 – Moderate geomagnetic storm watch is in effect for March 28 and 29. A high speed solar wind stream produced by a recurrent, negative-polarity (potent) coronal…
Earth is under the influence of a positive polarity coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS) which is causing geomagnetic storming. G1 – Minor geomagnetic storm threshold was first reached at 16:12 UTC on March 21, 2017. A G2 – Moderate geomagnetic storm warning was…
A sequence of events led to an Earth-directed asymmetric halo CME on March 15, 2015. The events began with a 14 degree long filament eruption, centered near S24W38, lifting off between 00:45 to 02:00 UTC. This was followed by C2.4 flare at 00:41 UTC and a long duration
Earth is currently under the influence of a high speed solar wind speed, originating in negative polarity southern crown coronal hole, which is causing periods of geomagnetic storming on our planet.Solar wind readings indicated a co-rotating interaction region (CIR) whi
According to the SWPC, the ACE satellite observed a pair of discontinuities in the solar wind field during the past 24 hours. The first discontinuity at 02:35 UTC on December 21 was weak and possibly indicated the arrival of a glancing blow from the December 17th Corona
NOAA/SWPC issued G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm alert early on December 7 due to the high speed solar wind stream originating from a geoeffective coronal hole in the Sun's southern hemisphere. Geomagnetic K-index of 5 (G1 – Minor) threshold was reached at 01:24 UTC to
Solar wind parameters indicated the arrival of the November 7 CME earlier today. At approximately 01:37 UTC, when CME arrived, total field increased from around 10 nT to a maximum of 23 nT at 01:46 UTC. The Bz component increased to +21 nT before briefly going southward
The Earth's magnetic field got disturbed in response to the arrival of the September 10 halo CME caused by X1.6 solar flare. Magnetometers around the world recorded a Geomagnetic Sudden Impulse at 15:55 UTC which signaled the arrival of the CME at
There are currently two Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) heading toward our planet and their combined arrival is expected to spark severe geomagnetic storms.The first one, released by the long duration M4.5 solar flare on September 9, is expected to hit Earth's magneti
Plasma cloud unleashed by M-class solar flare on August 22 reached our planed early Wednesday, August 27. Wind speeds increased from near 280 km/s to 340 km/s while density remained primarily between 5-10 p/cc (protons per cubic centimeter).Active to minor storm (G1) co
