> A coronal mass ejection (CME) that billowed away from the Sun on May 22nd
> is heading toward Earth. The expanding cloud could trigger a geomagnetic
> storm at middle latitudes when it arrives on Thursday, May 23rd or (more
> likely) Friday, May 24th. Sky watchers should remain alert for auroras on
> both nights. Our planet will also encounter a solar wind stream flowing
> from a coronal hole during the days ahead. Solar wind gusts could stir up
> additional geomagnetic activity. Stay tuned to spaceweather.com for
> updates.
