Shields are still holding.
 Quoting: finley


Took quite a shock it seems. Spaceweather.com is reporting magnetic field compression all the way down to geo-synchronus orbit. Satellite TV may be a little fuzzy this evening,lol.

Here's the infamous ground-current plots from Norway.

You can see the pressure at high levels about an hour ago. Glad I'm not in a plane or a space station tonight.

I don't see it.

Exactly which CME hit us then. Glancing blow from the Mars directed CME?
 Quoting: TardisBlue


Hi, Tardis. Look at this list of CMEs. Scroll down to 0038 and watch the clip-the first CME I think is the one we're dealing with. At the end of clip you'll see the large Mars-directed CME.

Here's the SOHO Cor 2 movie of the past 3 days. Let movie load and see all the CME activity.

Hi Hugh, thanks for that. Strange that nobody expected it until it hit? I thought forecasts were better than this now.

Hi, Zack, I wish NINzrez or Tomasgod were here to unscramble all this data. Some of the geo-magnetic graphs are still a puzzle to me, lol. I'll just get as much info out there as possible and we can all figure it out together 'til NIN gets back. I found a NASA spaceweather tutorial, but I haven't gone thru it all yet.

And I just tracked down the trusty old Magnetpause and Bow-Shock model.

Looks like a second wave is hitting us now-shields seem to holding up well, tho.

[link to www2.nict.go.jp]
 Quoting: Hugh M Eye

Kp Index has now jumped to 5-STORM level.
[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]

Solar Wind speed back up to 525.9 km/sec

Density back up to 13.8 protons per cubic cm.

[link to www.spaceweather.com]

Bz=12.1 nT south. NOAA data plots here:

[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]
 Quoting: Hugh M Eye



Are we still within "safe" levels though? I remember about a month ago, someone said the top left simulation here ... the 'tentacles' should be wrapped tightly when we are being hit. That we don't want to see them ummm spread out like this.

[link to www2.nict.go.jp]
 Quoting: Shenue


The initial wave was pretty weak and then faded-but now things are getting bumpy. If the big CME hit us straight on we may've been in a bit of trouble, but this is just the edge of the wave so we should be fine. There's really no way of knowing when a particular satellite may malfunction or if GPS will go off-until it happens.

Kp Index at Longyearbyen, Norway is at Storm level 6-everywhere else is at 4 or 5 right now.

Thank you Hugh. Even thought I have followed along this thread since March,...I have to tip my hat to you and the others who are bringing this information in real time to me/us.

I mean,...I vicariously feed off of your/everyone's sheer enthusiasm for the topic, but have no time to provide commentary that is not readily covered by the awesome Solar interpreters NIN has gathered together here.

I love how you and others are learning and giving it a go as well.

It's all good really.

i was going to post this, but wants to read through and see is anyone got it
and you hit it on the head :)
super fast winds and low density is about like low speed and high density
this was a glancing blow, so the main body of the CME did not hit
because of this the winds did not pic up to much
but there was a decent amount of density in this one, as we daw in all the stereo images
good thing this was not a direct hit
could have caused some major issues

Chart wise it might seem pretty normal, but energy is getting through big time. I was reading and could slowly "feel it" coming in. I went to the charts and sure enough the magnetic wings were spread wide. The ear tones started fluctuating and the body tingle was incredible. I haven't felt a ground wave hit like this in a long while. The photon band at times increases this resonance, we are at prime influx right now and will be for quite awhile. Meditate and block your ego, if you are at this point the energy is wild

Looks like the pressure's easing up a bit now. It's a good thing this sucker didn't hit us head on.

The geo-synchronus satellites have a little breathing room now.

Solar wind speed is now 492.5 km/sec and density is low at 0.3 protons/cubic cm

Aurora can be seen in the US as far south as Ohio.

Great to see you, NIN. Glad you have auroras there. According to Spaceweather.com they're being seen now in TENNESSEE and ARKANSAS! Everyone with clear skies GO OUTSIDE and LOOK UP. This is a fairly rare event to behold for most folks. Get some pics and post them for us.

AURORAS IN THE USA--NOW!
Northern Lights have spilled across the Canadian border into the contiguous USA. Observers report auroras as far south as
Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucky, Indiana, Maryland, New York, Ohio and central California.
The display was caused by the CME impact described below.

Auroras in New York is pretty crazy. Especially since flare activity has dropped off recently. Perhaps the new area of space our system is moving into is having an influence on this.

Good Evening Everyone,

I had a question--can solar flares disrupt my cable TV service?

It's been down for about 40 minutes now.

I'm in southeast Michigan.
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task
the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace. Acts 20:24

"This man really is the Savior of the world!" John 4:42

Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him;
and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, " says the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." Revelation 1:7
