STORMS CONTINUE: Following on the heels of Saturday's unexpected CME
impact, our planet is now moving into a stream of high speed (700 km/s)
solar wind. This is re-energizing geomagnetic activity around Earth's
poles. NOAA forecasters say there is an 80% chance of geomagnetic
storms on April 23rd subsiding to 'only' 60% to 65% on April 24th and
25th. High-latitude sky watchers should remain alert for auroras in the
nights ahead. In the USA, Northern Lights might be seen and
photographed in northern-tier states from Washington to Maine. Southern
Lights are also being reported by observers in high-latitude regions of
New Zealand.
