G2 geomagnetic storm watch issued as solar eruption heads for Earth
Original: G2 geomagnetic storm watch issued as powerful solar eruption heads for Earth — northern lights possible across northern US
Forecasters have issued a G2 geomagnetic storm watch after a powerful solar eruption sent charged material toward Earth. The disturbance is expected to reach the planet's magnetic field, potentially triggering displays of the northern lights visible across the northern United States. Moderate storm levels can also affect satellite operations and power grids at high latitudes.
Why now: The anticipated aurora and moderate space weather impacts are drawing widespread attention as the storm nears Earth.
