☀️🌌CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) from the sun launches earlier in the week are likely bringing auroras to mid latitudes tonight. But.....we have clouds and rain!!
Bummer. #auroras #wiwx

There's still a chance! No #auroras last night ... because no blast of sun-stuff from Monday’s X flare hit Earth. Is it slower than expected, or did it miss our planet completely? Only time will tell. Keep up with the #sun news at buff.ly/83XBUxq

Gorgeous #auroras danced across northern skies all weekend, fueled by up to G3 (strong) geomagnetic storming. A couple of blasts of sun-stuff could trigger more disturbance if they glance Earth's magnetic field as expected over the next few days. Read today's #sun news:

Northern lights dazzle worldwide as strong G3 geomagnetic storm sparks stunning show (photos) Powerful geomagnetic storms sent the northern lights dancing far beyond the poles, delivering a spectacular show across the world.

"Stunning northern lights lit up skies across the U.S. as a series of powerful geomagnetic storms sparked auroras far beyond their usual polar limits. From North America to northern Europe, skywatchers were treated to a dazzling show."

#Auroras danced across northern skies overnight as Earth’s magnetic field underwent strong geomagnetic storming. The storm is now easing, but forecasters still expect periods of minor–moderate storming through today, keeping aurora watchers busy for another night:

Auroras! In Finland! The entire sky was boiling with them, from one horizon to another, and they were so bright that they could be seen in city area. Also, they were VERY visibly and brightly red, purple, blue and green to human eye, not just camera!

#Auroras danced across skies from Scotland to the northern U.S. last night. Earth remained under the influence of multiple strikes by chunks of sun-stuff – coronal mass ejections – that left the #sun on March 16 and 18. Read on: buff.ly/og9cEmu

A new large coronal hole has emerged from the eastern horizon of our #sun. As it moves into a geoeffective position in the next days, the fast solar wind it produces will be sent our way, disturbing our magnetic field and potentially triggering #auroras. Stay tunned:

In May 2024, the biggest solar storm recorded in 20 years hit Earth. It sent our planet’s atmosphere into overdrive, triggering #auroras. This storm also hit Mars. Read about what happened on the Red Planet at: buff.ly/unepnU8

A G1 (minor) geomagnetic storm brought gorgeous #auroras to high northern latitudes last night. EarthSky’s own C. Alex Young - a sun scientist and co-author of EarthSky's daily sun update - got to see them! More of Alex's photos here, along with tonight's prospects: buff.ly/WNDBg5Z

Now is a good time to see some #auroras! As we move into March, we are entering an aurora season. These periods of increased auroral activity occur twice a year, around the March and September #equinoxes. 🌎🔭

Why? It’s all about magnetism and geometry. Find out more:

A stream of fast #solarwind from our star caused G2 (moderate) geomagnetic storming last night, triggering #auroras at northerly latitudes. More storming – and more auroral activity – is possible tonight. Read today's #sun news:
