CME IMPACT: A coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth's magnetic field on
August 5th around 1800 UT, setting the stage for possible geomagnetic storms
on August 5th and 6th. Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab report
that the impact may have compressed Earth's magnetosphere enough to directly
expose some satellites in geosynchronous orbit to solar wind plasma.
High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras after nightfall.
