Wow! Major solar fireworks today. Charge your camera batteries and put on your finest jacket for tomorrow night as strong (G3) or perhaps even severe (G4) geomagnetic storm conditions are possible tomorrow evening (1 June) into 2 June. The center of attention today was sunspot region 4100 which produced a gorgeous long duration M8.2 solar flare today (R2-moderate) peaking at 00:05 UTC. This region is close to the center of the Earth-facing solar disk and launched a major asymmetrical full halo (as seen by SOHO/LASCO) coronal mass ejection in space with a pretty much guaranteed earth-directed component.
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.
