*A CME IS COMING:* Over the weekend, a dark filament of magnetism on the 
sun blew up, hurling a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space. NOAA 
computer models confirm that the CME should sideswipe Earth on Feb. 23rd 
or 24th. The glancing blow could cause minor G1-class geomagnetic storms 
and high-latitude auroras. Full story @ Spaceweather.com
