GEOMAGNETIC STORM: A solar wind stream hit Earth during the late hours of 
Feb. 4th, sparking a G2-class (Kp=6) geomagnetic storm.  Sky watchers in 
Scandinavia, Russia, Canada, Alaska and perhaps even northern-tier US states 
such as Maine, Minnesota and Wisconsin, should be alert for auroras on 
Friday night.  The best time to look is during the hours around local 
midnight.
