This is the second strong warning the space and atmospheric agencies have put out for cycle 24. Several coronal mass ejections (CMEs) along with coronal hole and filament discharges have been produced over the last 72 hours. The cumulative effect of these events has caused an unexpected alert. The status of this event has been placed as a G3 ‘Strong’ event.
Watch for extreme weather events over the next 72 hours – this would include large earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, hurricane (water) tornado (land), and various extreme weather fluctuations.

Someday the Earth may just be fried by the Sun, when that will be is anyonesguess. Remindsme of the bible, “like a thier in the night” -Mort
“Like a thier in the night” should probably be “like a thief in the night.” Right?
Ummm…. I don’t see any current alerts Mort – not at the link you referenced anyway. Did I miss something?
I looked at it,too-
it seemed to indicate that there are no current solar alerts
on that link.
I’m only seeing a note that there was a storm
but the effects are pretty much past.
Nothing current.
