Popular Post Philalethes Posted June 13 Popular Post Share Posted June 13 Looks like the Eye of Sauron is making a return: Not sure how it'll develop over the next few days, but it looks to be at a very geoeffective latitude. Not the best time of year for auroral activity though, unless you live somewhere far south in the Southern Hemisphere. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that's far enough south; problem with the Southern Hemisphere is how the landmass is distributed much closer to the equator overall, as you might know. And we don't know yet if there will be any geomagnetic activity from it of course, but Earth-facing coronal holes frequently do lead to some some. Better if they're a bit bigger though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi we have a moderately high speed solar wind since 24 hours. CH 45 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polar connected CH 46 Is now partially facing earth ! And we can see "the huge filament below and the new ar 3718 on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
