Space Weather Message Code: WATA50 Serial Number: 80 Issue Time: 2024 Oct 02 1701 UTC WATCH: Geomagnetic Storm Category G3 Predicted Highest Storm Level Predicted by Day: Oct 03: G1 (Minor) Oct 04: G3 (Strong) Oct 05: G2 (Moderate) THIS SUPERSEDES ANY/ALL PRIOR WATCHES IN EFFECT NOAA Space Weather Scale descriptions can be found at www.swpc.noaa.gov/noaa-scales-explanation Potential Impacts: Area of impact primarily poleward of 50 degrees Geomagnetic Latitude. Induced Currents - Power system voltage irregularities possible, false alarms may be triggered on some protection devices. Spacecraft - Systems may experience surface charging; increased drag on low Earth-orbit satellites and orientation problems may occur. Navigation - Intermittent satellite navigation (GPS) problems, including loss-of-lock and increased range error may occur. Radio - HF (high frequency) radio may be intermittent. Aurora - Aurora may be seen as low as Pennsylvania to Iowa to Oregon.

My Aurora Forecast & Alerts - Apps on Google Play
My Aurora Forecast is the app for Northern Lights and Aurora Borealis alerts.

Space Weather Message Code: WATA99 Serial Number: 8 Issue Time: 2024 Oct 09 1233 UTC WATCH: Geomagnetic Storm Category G4 or Greater Predicted Highest Storm Level Predicted by Day: Oct 10: G4 (Severe) Oct 11: G4 (Severe) Oct 12: G1 (Minor) THIS SUPERSEDES ANY/ALL PRIOR WATCHES IN EFFECT NOAA Space Weather Scale descriptions can be found at www.swpc.noaa.gov/noaa-scales-explanation Potential Impacts: Area of impact primarily poleward of 45 degrees Geomagnetic Latitude. Induced Currents - Possible widespread voltage control problems and some protective systems may mistakenly trip out key assets from the power grid. Induced pipeline currents intensify. Spacecraft - Systems may experience surface charging; increased drag on low earth orbit satellites, and tracking and orientation problems may occur. Navigation - Satellite navigation (GPS) degraded or inoperable for hours. Radio - HF (high frequency) radio propagation sporadic or blacked out. Aurora - Aurora may be seen as low as Alabama and northern California.

I went out to look a couple of nights ago and I didn't see anything. I'll try again tomorrow night!

Little something people might find interesting......just look the west about dusk and you should be able to see it...
i've seen a few pictures already of it, you really can't miss it......for us i think about 7:45 to 8pm my time so....
