Pockets of Aurora & Boost in Solar Flux: Solar Storm Forecast 11-16-2017
The Sun's activity picks up this week with several pockets of fast wind expected to spark aurora at high latitudes. A slight chance for mid-latitude aurora also is expected later in the week. A new active region has also rotated into view this week and has given us a much needed boost in solar flux. Amateur radio operators and emergency responders should enjoy improved communications over HF radio for the next two weeks. Learn the details of this new solar activity and how the Sun will affect you this week.
