CHANCE OF STORMS: NOAA forecasters say there is a 65% chance of minor
geomagnetic storms today as Earth passes through a stream of solar wind.
A more relevant percentage may be 35%--the chance of *no storms*. This
solar wind stream is filled with positive-polarity magnetic fields that
do not easily link to Earth's planetary magnetic field. As a result, the
solar wind stream is having little effect on our planet.
