Predicted solar storm arrives
Posted: Thu Oct 12, 2017 6:01 am
Hi all,
The predicted solar storm arrived on October 11th and developed into a G1 geomagnetic storm overnight. This resulted from the impact of high speed solar wind emanating from a large Earth-facing coronal hole. The storm is still underway at the time of writing and is set to reach G2. My magnetometer easily detected the uptick in activity as can be seen from the chart. More to follow....
Thanks for looking.
