“According to many media sources, a massive solar storm is supposed to be ravaging Earth today. But the stories are overblown. Indeed a solar storm is hitting Earth now due to some fast solar wind from a coronal that has rotated into the earth-strike zone this week, but storming is expected to be mild and sporadic, causing minor inconveniences for GPS users, emergency responders, and amateur radio operators. Learn the real truth about the strength of the solar storm hitting thus far, where and when its possible to see aurora, catch up on photos from the last solar storm, and see and what else the Sun has in store this week!”
