A Southward Storm Launch Brings New Hope: Solar Storm Shortie 12-04-2018
Although we are in solar minimum, our Sun is staying busy! It launched a partially Earth-directed solar storm back on November 30th and we are expecting it to impact by December 5th. This solar storm will likely graze Earth to the south, but as I mention in the informal forecast (on Patreon), the tail end of this storm could actually hit Earth a little more directly. This means we could see aurora to mid-latitudes, if only briefly! Learn the details of this coming solar storm, how long it will linger, and what else our Sun has in store!
