“We are coming down from the fast wind that gave us a minor solar storm, which was weaker than expected so aurora didnt last as long as we hoped. But conditions will only stay quiet for a few days before we get hit with another small pocket of fast wind that could bump us back up to storm conditions and bring another chance for aurora. Amateur radio operators have been suffering through poor conditions due to no active regions in Earth view (except a tiny one, region 2690, that is emerging slowly now). Luckily, in about 4 days a larger, brighter region will return to Earth view, boosting the solar flux and radio propagation. Learn details of the recent and coming solar storms, catch up on aurora pics, and see what else the Sun has in store”
