SOHO/LASCO coronagraph imagery is now available to analyse the coronal mass ejection that was launched during the M6.9 solar flare from yesterday. Good news: this coronal mass ejection indeed has an earth-directed component. A minor G1 geomagnetic storm watch is in effect for 21 and 22 December.
A lot of people come to SpaceWeatherLive to follow the Solar activity or if there is a chance to see the aurora, but with more traffic comes higher costs to keep the servers online.
