⚠️ AURORA ALERT ⚠️

For those that aren't aware, there was a significant X4.5 #solar flare earlier today. The NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center is predicting the CME from that event will arrive on Monday, Sept 16 (UTC) as a G3 geomagnetic storm!

For people in North America, that means early Monday morning, possibly all the way into the evening.

For Europeans, late Monday morning into Tuesday.

For Aussies et al, early Tuesday morning?

#aurora

@malcircuit may I ask where do you find this picture? I'm still chasing good sources for these forecasts...

@Drops @malcircuit right, what about the image? I'm trying to get the image for the same period of time but focused either in the North Pole or Europe, because we don't all live in NA :)

@mdione @Drops @malcircuit
The image comes from here swpc.noaa.gov/communities/auro but you’ll be disappointed. I think noaa is a NA company ;)

@immae @Drops @malcircuit Right, but I have seen non-NA versions elsewhere; f.i., the 'few minutes' maps of the same page.

OTOH, aren't there other sources?
