METEOR NEWS: Earth is passing through a stream of debris from an unknown
comet or asteroid. It happens every year around this time and produces
a minor shower known as the "September epsilon Perseids." This year,
Earth ran into an unusually dense patch of meteoroids, which produced an
outburst of meteors over Europe near
midnight on Sept. 9-10. The event is highlighted on today's edition of
http://spaceweather.com.
CHANCE OF STORMS: NOAA forecasters estimate a 45%-50% chance of polar geomagnetic storms on
Sept. 12-13
in response to an incoming solar wind stream. This is not a major
event, but it could produce bright auroras around the Arctic Circle.
