*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
