TODAY--A STRONG GEOMAGNETIC STORM: Earth's magnetic field is reverberating from the impact of a Cannibal CME on April 15th. Geomagnetic storm levels are currently ranging from G2 (Moderate) to G3 (Strong) with a slight chance of G4 (Severe) in the hours ahead. If this activity persists at current levels, auroras could appear across Canada and some northern-tier US states during the night of April 16-17. Aurora alerts: SMS Text
"The CME delivered!" reports Sebastian Sainio from Finland. "It sparked a great, although not so long-lasting show on the night between the 15th and 16th of April."
A massive solar storm due to hit Earth today could cause radio blackouts and power grid disruptions.
