The above text at the Space Weather Prediction Center page will update, but I am not sure how often...

This storm is not considered "dangerous", but the auroras could be nice. :-)

Lots of great links at the SWPC page, btw.

This is when I feel like flying to Canada or Alaska to see the aurora.

Have heard stories that some solar storms push viewing of the aurora down to the Lower 48.

All the comments about going north so see the aurora sounds like the beginning of a chiller movie where all the people that watch the aurora are zapped by new types of radiation and either disintegrate or turn into zombies and head south to infect everyone else. My husband watches the walking dead. It's too gory for me, so I'm usually reading FR. I think I need to read elsewhere.

Is anyone else wishing it would "cleanse" DC?
