GEOMAGNETIC STORM PREDICTED (G1-CLASS): NOAA forecasters estimate a 55%
chance of G1-class geomagnetic storms on Nov. 29th when Earth's magnetic
field is expected to receive a glancing blow from a CME, hurled toward
us days ago by a magnetic explosion on the sun. There's more: A fissure
in the sun's atmosphere is spewing solar wind into space, and the
gaseous material could reach Earth on Nov. 29th as well. G1-class storms
have little effect on power grids and satellites. However, they can
affect migratory animals that navigate using magnetism. Such storms can
also cause spectacular auroras around the Arctic Circle. Visit
