AbeH Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Seems like the sun is waking up a bit with a G2 Observed and a G1 currently in progress.*UPDATE* It appears NOAA forcasts G3 Storming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxime Fiset Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Is it expected to get higher than a G3?Well the watch is for G3 or more, so you can expect worse, but I doubt it. After all, it is not the effect of a CME, but of the co-rotating interaction region and, after, the coronal hole high speed stream. Those two combined rarely give more than G2 events, so even with the lingering effets of the CME (as they say...) it should not be so exciting. I can be wrong. I OFTEN am. Keep your eyes north. (Btw, it should be happening like... right now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AurorahunterPA Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hoping it reaches g3 level!!! Last time I caught an aurora was with that level, but if bz goes south enough it could happen with a g2 I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxime Fiset Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Yeah... no =( They even pulled back on the G2 warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
