“Solar activity picks up this week after a lull, bringing some fast solar wind that is causing a mild solar storm. Aurora has been seen at high latitudes and sporadically at mid-latitudes, but effects are mild. These mild conditions are likely to continue through the weekend. Amateur radio and GPS operators should only experience minor effects. Get an update on the storm, catch up on aurora photos, and see the first sunspot of solar cycle 25 appear!”
