There was a slight disturbance in the planetary index on early August 9 which proved to be arrival of some early part of it after unsettled 2MeV electron flux exceeding 1000pfu
On August 10, the pfu also exceeded the 1000 pfu value and as a result of the images of CME heading towards earth and those datas, a Geomagnetic K index of 4 is being expected
This geomagnetic storm is not expected to be a big one but I am amazed to see that it can be bigger than expected.This one is likely going to affect the magnetic field of the earth on 10th August and will cause Brilliant auroras in the high latitude areas.
The NOAA scale is 30% chance of active geomagnetic storm in high latituded and a 25% in mid latitudes.So I think Auroras can be seen in polar regions, and in the 55 degree zones also!
The Sunspot 1093 is right now facing the earth, but I don't find another chance of eruption from it
However the sunspot 1096 is becoming active a low class flare will be possible as magnetic fields are unsettled there.
MY FORECAST-(ON EXPERIMENTAL BASIS SINCE I HAVE JUST STARTED FORECASTING)
A PARTIAL GEOMAGNETIC STORM WILL HIT THE EARTH ON AUGUST 10.
A NEAR G1 GEOMAGNETIC STORM WILL HIT. BUT KP SEEMS TO BE SETTING AT 4-5
AURORAL DISPLAY IS LIKELY IN HIGH LATITUDES
