[link to ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov] in the absense of nict, I use this. BATS R US it is indication that the magnetosphere is all rolled up at 1900 Utc. if you miss it, the red threads are wrapped around earth on it, you can use the link at the bottom of the page to look at past images.

If Nict was running, we would have people starting, "oh my god , I never saw this before" the world is collapsing threads here today.
