A Bright New Region for New Years: Solar Storm Shortie 01-03-2019
Our Sun is ringing in the New Year by giving us a shot at another solar storm. A triangle-shaped coronal hole is rotating into the Earth-strike zone and it promises to send us sporadic bursts of fast solar wind that could last through the end of the week. This means we could get another chance for aurora down to mid-latitudes. If that isn't enough, a new bright region has emerged on the Earth-facing Sun over the past couple of days and it has been firing some mini-solar flares. Although this region isn't a big flare producer, it has been boosting the solar flux, which has brought radio propagation is back into the marginal range on Earth's dayside. Learn how long these solar flux conditions are going to last, when we can expect the coming solar storm to hit, and whether or not GPS reception will be impacted by the Sun's activity this week.
