Solar Storms Ground 6,000 Jets, Disrupt GPS Systems

Northern lights possible tonight across Southern Michigan

COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) –  Residents of Branch County and all of Southern Michigan have a promising chance to witness the spectacular aurora borealis tonight into early Tuesday morning, as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has issued a strong (G3) geomagnetic storm watch. A coronal mass ejection (CME) that erupted from the sun on December 6 is expected to impact Earth’s magnetic field, potentially leading to a vibrant light…

Earth Just Got Slammed By a Solar Flare. Why Didn’t Scientists See It?

Scientists can usually spot coronal mass ejections before they mess with GPS and cause power outages—but this one snuck past coronagraphs and satellites.

Geomagnetic storm watch issued after solar flare

Increased solar flare activity could cause geomagnetic storms, NOAA says, which could affect certain technologies and migrating animals. NOAA has designated an active sunspot area as 4294.
