CME Headed to Earth Will Strike Comet on the Way
SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 10/08/2024
GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH: Minor (G1) to strong (G3) geomagnetic storms are possible today as Earth passes through the tail of a CME that struck our planet on Oct. 6th. Magnetic fields in the CME’s tail are connecting to Earth’s magnetic field, opening the door for solar wind to enter our planet’s magnetosphere. If this continues, mid-latitude auroras may be visible for the third night in a row.
