The Sun has perked-up the past few days sending us 3 M-class fares from a region that previously had been quiet. In addition, we are feeling the effects of a solar storm that was predicted to go well east of Earth. The effects from this storm will likely be extended due to a fast solar wind stream we will begin to pass through in the next few days, which will enhance the storm’s effects. All of this has given us some beautiful aurora, which should continue over the next 24 hours or so. See details of how the building solar activity might affect you and what else the Sun has in store for us this week.
