As usual: Cloudy here in E. Wisconsin. No break since before this current spate of CMEs began. Sigh.
To keep up on solar activity and auroras, visit Spaceweather.com.
SOHO site calls it an "X-whatever" flare!

The moon unfortunately is beginning to get very unfavorable for the aurora; getting towards a full moon. Really washes out a lot of the aurora.
I doubt there's really a chance of an amazing display for about another 18 days or so, when these sunspots (if they survive) are rotated back around the Sun and pointing towards Earth.
