The CME that erupted late on March 4 passed ACE around 04:00 UTC March 7 (11:00 p.m. EST March 6). So far we’ve observed G2 (Moderate) levels of storming in association with that event. Conditions are currently decreasing for that event, so subsequent G2 storming is
Interplanetary Magnetic Field (Bz) has been pointing south at times today (Monday) and combined with the solar wind at near 500 km/s, it has generated a minor G1 Geomagnetic Storm at high latitudes. Storm levels reached Kp index of 5. The geomagnetic field is expected
An expected solar wind stream hit Earth’s magnetic field during the waning hours of Saturday, Feb. 18th producing bright auroras all the way down into several US states including Wisconsin, Michigan, North Dakota, and Minnesota. The Bz is pointing South at times
A disturbance rippled through Earth’s magnetic field on Feb. 14th. On several occasions the sky was full of auroras from horizon to horizon, said photographer and aurora tour guide Chad Blakley of Abisko National Park, Sweden for Spaceweather.com.An update to the
CME Impact is here! By SWPC this is now the largest solar radiation storm since october 2003!The ACE Spacecraft chart showed a sharp change in the Bz data, just after 14:30 UTC. SWPC forecasters said they are expecting this CME to arrive here at Earth about 30
A solar wind stream is buffeting Earth’s magnetic field and this is causing geomagnetic storm. A coronal mass ejection (CME) The Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) reported on Jan 19, finally impacted our geomagnetic field with a glancing blow early this morning.hit

A coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth’s magnetic field at approximately 2145 UTC on Nov. 28th. The impact was relatively weak and did not spark a strong geomagnetic storm yet. Kp index is at level 4.Solar
A Guide for Solar Watchers pt.1 – Sun basics
For all those who don't quit understand what is happening with our Sun and what is space weather we decided to make A Guide for Solar Watchers. We will start with solar basics – structure, characteristics, solar
The solar wind was at increased levels Tuesday morning and combined with a south tilting Bz, it stirred up a minor geomagnetic storm at high latitudes. Things have since returned to quieter levels.Solar activity increased to moderate levels Monday with three M-Class
