'Go outside tonight and look' Mathew Owens, a professor of space physics at the University of Reading, told AFP that how far the effects would be felt over the planet's northern and southern latitudes would depend on th...
no auroras will be seen over Canada or the United States from the start of this event. However, there is strong potential for these geomagnetic storm levels to persist, and even reach G5 (extreme) in the hours ahead.
NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a “strong” G3 geomagnetic storm warning. According to astatementfrom the agency, the northern lights “could be visible as far south as Alabama and Northern California tonight,” as long as skies are clear. The...
Those particles slammed into Earth's magnetic field Friday, triggering what space weather scientists called a level G5 geomagnetic storm — something Earth has not seen since the truly epic solar storms of Halloween 2003. "The reason for all this, well, there's been two sunspot clusters, one...
Earth is in the midst of a moderate solar storm -- but will it be strong enough to cause technology disruptions?
The team at NOAA expects the geomagnetic storm, which is traveling at nearly 2.5 million miles per hour, to make contact with the Earth in the late morning/early afternoon on Thursday, with effects stretching into the early hours of Saturday. While there is no sure thing regarding the...

A powerful solar storm that slammed into Earth today (March 8) triggered weaker-than-expected disruptions, but may still have a few more tricks up its sleeve, scientists say. "We're probably not going to see much more from this storm, but I don't know if we can say it's quite over...
