  6. #SpaceWeather : The chance for strong flares β˜€οΈ increased to 20%. The main driver is active region #AR4405

    Forecast:

    πŸ“† April 1: A #CME may provoke enhancements up to G2 (moderate) geomagnetic storming late today

    πŸ“† April 2: G1 (minor) #geomagnetic storm levels expected

    πŸ“† April 3: Unsettled to active conditions may occur. A chance of G1 (minor) storm intervals exists if the next coronal hole’s fast solar wind stream arrives earlier than expected

  11. [1000 km/sec - < 500 MeV - > 50nT] These three values reflect the intensity of the #geomagnetic storm that hit the #Earth at the beginning of the week. Caused by an X1.9-class solar flare, it produced magnificent aurorasβ€”even at mid-latitudes.

    Thanks to the vast network of instruments aboard space telescopes (SOHO, Solar Orbiter, etc.) and distributed on the ground, astronomers were able to track the evolution of this solar storm and its propagation toward Earth: irap.omp.eu/en/2026/01/all-abo

  12. MAHOOSIVE #geomagnetic #SolarStorm going on - stronger than last night. And here at 51 degs north its windy and wet. Bugger.

    Last night there was a very annoying high haze which meant i got a vague purpleish sky to the north at best.

    Damn

  13. Higher levels of #CarbonDioxide will make the upper atmosphere less dense overall β€” but more prone to dramatic increases πŸ“ˆ in density during #SolarStorms, which could have significant implications for technology like #GPS, #satellite πŸ›°οΈ internet and the #ISS. The May 2024 #geomagnetic superstorm caused nearly half of all satellites in #LEO to automatically fire their thrusters to stay spaceborne astronomy.com/science/satellit

  14. #SpaceWeather effects affect our technological systems. The currents a #geomagnetic storm induces in power lines can destroy transformers. For long-distance power lines aligned parallel to the geoelectric fields, the induced voltage can be thousands of volts. Many of today’s #electrical systems are built around #computer chips that are not robust to high-voltage surges. The hardest-hit regions could be without #power for days or weeks until equipment could be delivered spectrum.ieee.org/us-regions-m

  15. A #Geomagnetic #Storm is a major, temporary disturbance of Earth's magnetosphere caused by a potent injection of solar wind energy, typically from a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME), which significantly alters the planet's magnetic field.

    These storms can trigger dazzling auroras at lower latitudes but can also cause damaging geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) that disrupt power grids, degrade GPS signals, and increase drag on low-Earth orbit satellites.

  16. #KnowledgeByte: #Geomagnetic #Storms are disturbances of the Earth's magnetosphere caused by the ejection of large amounts of plasma and magnetic field from the Sun, often associated with solar flares or coronal mass ejections (CMEs).

    These storms can have significant impacts on technology and infrastructure on Earth.

  17. A coronal mass ejection (#CME) that erupted from the sun β˜€οΈ on Saturday slammed into Earth’s magnetic field late last night, triggering a G2 (moderate) #geomagnetic storm. And forecasters expect geomagnetic activity to intensify tonight, with potential G3 (strong) storms and even a slight chance of G4 (#severe) conditions earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

  20. Earth remains under the influence of a waning high-speed #SolarWind β˜€οΈ stream. No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (#CMEs) were observed over the past 24 hours. Earth’s #geomagnetic field 🌐 was unsettled to active over the past day. earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

  21. #SpaceWeather πŸ“† February 13 : The arrival of a faint coronal mass ejection (#CME) – combined with enhancements by fast #SolarWind from a coronal hole – might bring conditions for a G1 (minor) #geomagnetic storm tonight earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

  22. The #Carrington Event was both the most powerful #SolarStorm and the most powerful #Geomagnetic #Storm ever recorded.

    It started with an incredibly intense solar flare, the most powerful ever observed, releasing a massive amount of energy and matter from the Sun.

    This solar storm sent a massive coronal mass ejection towards Earth, which then slammed into our magnetosphere, causing the most intense geomagnetic storm ever recorded.

  23. A #Geomagnetic #Storm is a major disturbance of Earth's #Magnetosphere that occurs when there is a very efficient exchange of energy from the #SolarWind into the space environment surrounding Earth.

  24. No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (#CMEs) were observed in available coronagraph imagery.
    Current #geomagnetic activity: Earth’s magnetic field is quiet. Unsettled condition are expected to begin on September 8 due to fast solar β˜€οΈ wind reaching Earth from a coronal hole moving into geoeffective position. This should extend into πŸ“† September 9 earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

    "While all of the excitement is surrounding the ongoing #geomagnetic storm, AR 3664 just produced a major X5.8 flare at 01:23 UTC. Updated imagery shows that a noteworthy #CME will be associated. More to follow!"

  26. One hundred amperes is equivalent to the electrical service provided to many households 🏠. Currents ⚑ this size can cause internal damage in the components, leading to large scale power πŸ”Œ outages. In addition to electrical failures, #communications πŸ“± would be disrupted on a worldwide scale. #Internet πŸ“Ά service providers could go down.
