A Stealthy Solar Storm and a Meteor Shower | Space Weather News 04.17.2020

This week our Sun quiets down in terms of bright regions, but a stealthy solar storm is on the way! The source of this wispy solar storm was really difficult to spot, which means it is harder to pin down exactly which direction it is travelling. Preliminary modeling show the solar storm might go west of Earth, with the possibility of a glancing blow on March 19 and 20. This means aurora photographers at high latitudes could get a show, but likely those at mid-latitudes will only catch glimpses of aurora, if any at all. Solar flux has also dipped back into the high 60s, which means poor radio propagation on Earth's dayside once again. However, I am getting reports that the sporadic-E season is beginning to pick up in he Northern hemisphere, and that should boost propagation somewhat for those north of the equator. Learn the details of the coming solar storm, when aurora might be visible (along with a meteor shower), and see what else our Sun has in store.
