"A rather mediocre partial halo CME associated with a C2.6 flare from AR [----] peaking at 20231109T1118Z has caused quite a stir in the #spaceweather community. I have always said that C class solar flares can create CME's that will cause G level geomagnetic storms if they are in the correct location on the Sun. Will the CME arrive at the estimated times I am going with the University of Readings estimate arrival time of 20231112T0751Z with a solar wind speed of [---] km/s with a kP of +5. #spaceweather #Aurora #Auroraborealis #northernlights #CME"

""The Russians Are Coming" Pink N2 fringes are usually on the forefront of the arrival of a geomagnetic storm such was the case on March [--] [----] the CIR/impact of a CME is the best time to catch the aurora doing unusual things. This is why it is extremely important to follow people who post a lot about what is happening on the Sun for it's the activity of the Sun that dictates just how much aurora we see several people to follow @chunder10 @Vincent_Ledvina @SpaceWxRina @SNHWx @halocme and of course yours truly @theauroraguy .

""Painted Lady In The Sky" West of Calgary Sibbald Pond 20231122T0711-0730Z The sky started to clear as I arrived at my location. The first order of business was to set up my stationary camera this is the one I leave alone. By the time that I had set that camera up the aurora started going overhead so I set up my second camera to start recording the overhead aurora the aurora did not appear to go coronal.
