Auroras for Valentine's Day?


Source - Space Weather News for Feb 14, 2014: http://spaceweather.com

AURORAS FOR VALENTINE'S DAY? Three CMEs are heading for Earth. Individually they are minor clouds. However, by striking Earth's magnetic field in quick succession on Feb 14-15, they could cause significant geomagnetic activity around the poles. Check http://spaceweather.com for updates about possible auroras on Valentine's Day.

SOLAR FLARE ALERTS:  Big sunspot AR1974 has a 'beta-gamma-delta' magnetic field that harbors energy for strong flares.  

X-flare alerts are available from http://spaceweathertext.com (text) and http://spaceweatherphone.com (voice).
