SEVERE SOLARWX

SEVERE WEATHER FORECASTER
AN expected band of coronal mass ejection from march 3 event is speedily heading towards the earth as seen from STEREO images.
The CME was observed in the images today morning with light disturbance patch but is now a strong band quickly progressing!
CME is expected to hit the earth late hours ( 6th March) to early morning hours (7th March)
If the magnetic field of sun trips south or southward Bz, then solar wind shall pour in as at the point of contact of sun and earth magnetic field during southward Bz, solar winds enter. If the magnetic field of sun trips to north, then less auroras are expected with weak geomagnetic storm
I expect unsettled conditions from tomorrow noon to evening period with active conditions (storm) by evening hours and some time on 8th March
Attached image shows approaching cme from sun side.
Sunspot 1164
Today, sunspot 1164 which is capable of producing X class flare has emitted top C class flares.
Despite delta magnetic field, sunspot has been calm with no major flare till yet. It might be due to less active coronal loops visible leading to shortness of open
tube which is the gateway for a flare and cme
HIGH LATITUDE OBSERVERS SHALL REMAIN ALERT FOR AURORAS
