News about Earth, Northern Lights

Hello, everyone! Just bumping this form (tinyurl.com/ARCTICSsurvey) we, the ARCTICS team are collecting your reports of aurora from the May 10-13 geomagnetic storms. We are particularly interested in reports from the southern hemisphere and low latitudes! 1/2 pic.twitter.com/aqCZMTvCsg

Good morning! Although we have seen the arrival of a CME, the positive Bz has largely stifled auroral activity. Even still, there were some brief sightings at mid-latitudes. This just emphasizes the fact that webcams/aurora chasers are valuable ground-truth resources. pic.twitter.com/8mMXlS8MwK

A large (non Earth-directed) eruption of filament plasma! Filament eruptions are different to flare-driven CMEs, and do not require an active region as their source. Look at how much the filament expands on its journey off the Sun! #spaceweather pic.twitter.com/LerqsePZ5I

Double M-class #SolarFlare from today. 3.5 years ago (and likely 3 years from now), an event like this would have gotten us Sun scientists giddy! But now? 🥱😴💤 - Solar maximum is spoiling us! pic.twitter.com/2JSz4hvFu8
