Because I've already done sliding every page from 2003 and to this month and saw nothing longer than this, a lot of increasing and x storms. Is this potentially dangerous? Like really bad thing, I can't imagine... I'm little worried so I want to know what is happening and when this unordered events will go away? If someone can explain me, I'll be so happy. TY you witnessed one of the strongest geomagnetic storms since recording began 2 days ago and you were just fine! The storm is over by now. you lived through it and did not have 1 disruption of anything. There are threads for your concerns, i advice you go read through them because it really helps The recent X flares are not in a geoeffective position should there be any ejecta. 2 minutes ago, Jesterface23 said: We already made it through 2 rounds of Kp9 already. There is nothing to fear. Exactly! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still here on the internet and typing. We could take a stronger impact and still be fine. The best of the geomagnetic storm has already passed anyways.

Glowman Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 5 minutes ago, Arman Sargsyan said: @Glowman But is it really bad, I mean I think you didn't answerd me... what would be in future, is it gonna be okay, or something bad? The question is general... Like is Sun okay? Is graphs will be calm? The Sun is very ok The Earth is very ok The Humanity is not ok, this is a real threat So recent nearspace events is yet another turn of crazy events like last 10-12 years or so with unknown but rather invisible and not critical consequences 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerpaw0723 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 @Arman Sargsyan it might not be the best explanation but imagine the our earth is a waterfall, and the sun is a biiig cloud if it rains, the waterfall has more water, and it looks beautiful! everything is just fine! try thinking about it like this, and have a well deserved rest:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for supporting me ❤️ everything is fine, we can survive an event twice as strong as happened yesterday without any consequences. no threat at all, just enjoy that you watched a storm which will be in history 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterface23 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 @Arman Sargsyan I think the best thing you can do right now is go look at pictures of the aurora from this event. If you come across any doom comments, just ignore them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TY This was indeed one of the strongest events since 2003, but it's already over now. No potential danger at all. Lack of sleep is likely going to be far more harmful to your health than geomagnetic activity in the first place, so better get some shuteye. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tino Lehtonen Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Btw who else wants to see how all this looked like from space? I wonder could one see this strong aurora in satellite imagery... I think Sentinel 2 imagery was available also from nighttime previously but not anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katie Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I have been following space weather website for couple years and noticed your predictions were always more accurate than the 3- day forecasts. Thanks to your announcement on Thursday, I drove up and stayed at north and saw the amazing northern lights. Just registered to say “Thank you" to all of you ! Happy weekend and happy mother's day to all the moms. I will continue to follow you guys, hug hug. Katie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misaka Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 So there are still chances for Europe (and maybe even North America) to see the Northern Lights tonight. At least at higher latitudes where it is dark. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterface23 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 We might be a flux rope, possibly. At least the temperatures did drop a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came to this site for this same reason and I have learned a lot over the years. Spend some time here, following the Community Boards for information. As far as I’m concerned this is the only place you should come to for space weather information. You witnessed history this weekend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StargazingHippy Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 1 minute ago, owenb0576 said: Hopefully it sticks around for a while We don't want it to stay south for a long time either as eventually it runs out of gas. The dives up and down help to excite the particles and make them more active. It only needs to be south for a short time ahead but once it does the harder south the better. Myself I'm in Canada so I'm hoping it either goes north for a few hours or keeps flipping before turning south tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some CMEs have a magnetic rope that we enter after the sheath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
