A brush with density...
A filament eruption on the southeast limb yesterday ( [link to youtu.be] sent a CME (plasma blob) out into space, some of which may brush past earth on February 3rd. At this time we're expecting active geomagnetic conditions (but less than G1 - minor storms). Aurora watchers in the high latitudes should keep an eye.

Here is the latest WSA-ENLIL model run showing the CME arrival. A couple of other model runs show the CME arriving earlier in the day on the 3rd. Visit www.spaceweather.gov for the latest updates.
