Greetings Beloved Kin,
The photographer didn’t identify whether this is Venus or Saturn in the photo of the Noctilucent clouds over Poland. The Full Thunder Supermoon is reflected in today’s weather in Coffeyville, KS and surrounding area. The sky is dark and rumbling with warnings of high winds later this morning. We can use the rain, forecast to change from light to moderate as the winds blow storm clouds this way.
The Sun produced an X-class flare on July 2, 2023. Though not a direct blow toward Earth, it’s likely to produce sky events like the Noctilucent clouds captured in the photo.
SPACEWEATHER NEWS: JULY 5, 2023
GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH: NOAA forecasters say that G1-class geomagnetic storms are possible on July 7th when a partial halo CME is expected to hit Earth’s magnetic field. It was hurled in our direction yesterday by an explosion in the magnetic canopy of sunspot AR3359.
SUNSPOT COUNTS HIT A 21-YEAR HIGH: The sun is partying like it’s 2002. That’s the last time sunspot counts were as high as they are now. The monthly average sunspot number for June 2023 was 163, according to the Royal Observatory of Belgium’s Solar Influences Data Analysis Center. This eclipses every month since Sept. 2002.
