[MIham] Aurora Alert: Sept 14-15, 2005

[FSK]

Space Weather News for Sept. 14, 2004
http://spaceweather.com

Sunspot 798/808 flared twice more yesterday, and at least one of the X-class
explosions propelled a coronal mass ejection (CME) toward Earth.  NOAA
forecasters estimate a 70% chance of severe geomagnetic activity when the
CME arrives--perhaps tonight, Sept. 14-15.  Sky watchers at all latitudes
should be alert for auroras.

Observing tips:  Although auroras are sometimes bright enough to shine
through city lights, you'll see more from a dark-sky site in the
countryside.  The best time to look is usually during the hours around local
midnight.
