Two Snake-Like Filaments & A Solar Storm | Space Weather News 09.02.2020

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University:
This week our Sun shows more signs of the new solar cycle.Two big filaments have rotated into Earth-view and one has erupted as a solar storm! That we are seeing filaments on the Sun again is a welcome reminder that activity is ramping up. Even though the first filament launched to the East of Earth, we are watching the second filament closely because it is passing through the Earth-strike zone now and if it launches over the next couple of days, it could be an Earth-directed solar storm. Meanwhile, we are currently feeling the effects of some fast solar wind that has bumped us to storm levels multiple times and brought aurora down to mid-latitudes sporadically. Expect these conditions to continue over the next day or so before things return to quiet conditions. Learn the details of the ongoing solar storm as well as the filaments on the Sun, see how they could affect you, and find out what else our Sun has in store this week.

Awesome... building strength or releasing fury or maybe something else, a cleansing perhaps? and or of what or who? :]
The connection that our mother earth and her relationship she has with her beautiful Son is a magical, mystical and wondrous sight to behold...

OMG! I thought there were solar flares b/c of walkie talkies and handheld computers glitching out at work all the time! Thank you for this! I can't wait to hear the next update. Issues got worse around the 31st and are getting better, but not completely. I notice the differences between night and day, too!!

Always appreciate your enthusiasm :) Hope springs eternal. mention of the Happy B-day of the Carrington Sept. has always been the doldrums of Ham Radio. HF has been less than stellar the past 6 weeks. Very little E's, 10-6 mtrs has been stink o. Lower bands continue to languish in yuckness. Come on Sun quit teasing
