GEOMAGNETIC STORM IN PROGRESS: A solar wind stream blowing faster than 700 km/s is lashing Earth’s magnetic field on Aug. 31st. This has sparked a G2-class (moderately strong) geomagnetic storm. So far auroras have been observed in Iceland, Alaska, Finland, Wisconsin and Michigan–with more expected tonight if the storm continues. Visit Spaceweather.com for photos and updates.
