G1 Geomagnetic Storm 19th July 2022

Post by Carbon60 »

Ahead of a CME impact (expected 20th/21st) our magnetic environment is becoming unsettled. Today brought a G1 geomagnetic storm. Unlike recent 'reports' would have the public believe, the effect has been minor. No global outage!

Great to see your observations Stuart :bow

I would have liked to have tried to see any aurora Saturday night but we were in light polluted skies and limited ability to get around as we did not get our rental car until Sat morning.
