  • Always fun to see aurora but this one was a lot weaker than the previous events we have had this "season". Fingers crossed for more active flares in the upcoming days/weeks! This was taken about one h

There isn't a chance for Kp9, it's not one of those events.

The CME has arrived at L1

sure? someone on twitter claiming it

but this dude is often rather over-the-top with his forecasts, not meant rude ofc.

mmm I think you are wrong, he is not affirming that there could be kp9, he says that there could be kp8 severe storm is kp8,

The velocities will go up further, maybe with another velocity shock or rise within the next few hours.

CME 2: Electric Boogaloo. Looking forward to it.

The problem with people who keep making such forecasts is that they don't keep any track of all the times they've been wrong; whenever they do get a prediction right, even if just by chance, they'll parade it around. Often they'll also twist it to say that they were right even when they were clearly wrong. If this doesn't end up a G5, who will be there to remind them of it next time they make an extreme prediction? Probably no one, and not many are that interested in keeping track of other people's wrong predictions either; better to just pay less attention to them in my experience.

You already know the answer lol

We've had sunny weather for a whole week, now today is the start of a rainy week :D

Sorry to hear.. 😕 Will the impact stay into tomorrow and give you a chance´?

Same; full week of some nice April sunshine, today cloudy with some rain, tomorrow 20 mm of rain expected. Classic.

does anyone know how long impact will likely last? its not as fast as i thought @Jesterface23

If there is a long lived flux rope similar to the previous surprise CME arrival, effects from the CME could last 2 days.

I think we are in both CMEs currently, we might be in a bit of a proton density buildup right now

can stereo a data be used to forecast BZ?

¿Se pueden usar datos estéreo para pronosticar BZ?

I don't know if this can predict the bz but it is interesting

For consistent use, I'd say no. STEREO A is out in different conditions. There is even very slight differences between ACE and DSCOVR as they orbit around L1.

Maybe long enough to pave way for the HSS of the CH that's almost at the equator now if it persists. Could be quite a few days of geomagnetic activity.

Why do we have S1 solar radiation storm right now? There wasn't any major solar flare now.

the CME likely brought particles with it
