Moderate geomagnetic storm watch

A solar flare yesterday sent a coronal mass ejection towards Earth. As a result we could expect to see the aurora borealis as far south as New York City. The solar wind moves at approximately 500 km/s, which means it takes about 3 days for these solar events to reach us. If you live in the northern United States or Canada be sure to look outside on Saturday, March 23rd!

Will be aiming to do that, I'll be checking later in the evening, after my wife's done work past 9pm, to see if it's worthwhile to get to the outskirts of the city, and further.

Edmontons's about 52 degrees north, so we have a shot at seeing something decent, outside of the city lights.

RACHEL TIPPED 52 CORAL FOR THIS POST

I have Brockville across the river and a street light right in front of my house, no sky magic for me ;-;

By many accounts, this past weekend was supposed to be an excellent opportunity for many across Canada and the northern United States to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights. When the time came, though, skywatchers were left out in the cold - literally, in some cases - so what happened?
