Hi all,
Earth is passing through a region of fast flowing solar wind from a large coronal hole. This is creating an unsettled geomagnetic environment around the globe, sparking aurora in northern and southern regions.
Here are my geomag data:
Given the extent of the coronal hole, this minor (G1) storm is likely to be around for a few days.
Thanks for looking.
Stu.

This is a nice looking hole but sadly not strong enough to give us a good show, apart from you
