Aurora Watch
Currently our Geomagnetic Field is fairly quiet and visible aurora would be possible only around the polar regions. An increase in geomagnetic activity will be possible starting tomorrow should a CME sweep past our planet as predicted. A potential for minor geomagnetic storming watch was issued today by the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center.
WATCH: Geomagnetic A-index of 20 or greater predicted

Solar Update / 1504 Returns
Solar activity remains moderate with the occasional low level M-Class flare around Sunspot 1515. A new Sunspot is rotating into view off the southeast limb and looks to be the return of old Sunspot 1504 from the previous rotation. There will continue to be a chance for another strong solar flare on Friday.
