*GEOMAGNETIC STORM PREDICTED:* On Nov. 6th, Earth will cross through a 
fold in the "heliospheric current sheet"--a vast system of electrical 
currents that ripples through interplanetary space. A day later, on Nov. 
7th, a fast-moving stream of solar wind is expected to engulf our 
planet. The combined effect of these two events could spark polar 
geomagnetic storms. NOAA forecasters say there is a chance of G1-class 
storms on both Nov. 7th and Nov. 8th. Arctic sky watchers will likely 
see auroras mixed with moonlight on those dates, while photographers in 
northern-tier US states may be able to capture the lights using digital 
cameras with nighttime ISO settings. Visit Spaceweather.com
