Hi all,
From an otherwise almost blank sun (Earth-side) fast flowing solar wind from open coronal magnetic field lines (coronal holes) sparked a Kp5 solar storm here on Earth and bright aurora.
The storm provoked a respectable magnetometer response.
Thanks for looking.
Stu.

Re: Kp5 Solar Storm from Coronal Holes- Magnetometer respons
Thanks Stuart - I saw the same very impressive response from my instrument and was just about to look up what might have caused it when I saw your post
I think this is the first time we have had the opportunity to compare the 'clone' with the 'prototype' for a significant event so.......... here is what I have:
Not a bad agreement

Thanks for all your guidance and support during the development of 'the clone' Stuart - just goes to prove that distance learning works

Absolute pleasure, Mike. Glad it all came together. It's quite a lot of work, but perseverance pays!
