The CME did not disappoint! More storming activity to come?

However, the Bz shifted mostly northward during the European night time hours which only thanks to the high solar wind speeds of around 1.000km/s still triggered occasional periods with storm conditions but the show was lackluster compared to what the US and our friends down under got to see.

However, in the last 12 hours the Bz shifted southwards again and is fueling more geomagnetic unrest. We are currently at moderate G2 geomagnetic storm conditions and this could persist into European nightfall gifting an opportunity to places like England and northern Germany to catch some aurora. However we are in the tail end of this coronal mass ejection so expect its effects to become less and less as time goes on.
