> AURORAS IN THE USA: A coronal mass ejection (CME) hit
Earth's magnetic field on March 10th. The impact set off a
G1-class geomagnetic storm and sent Northern Lights rippling over the
US-Canadian border into states such as Wisconsin, Minnesota, and
Michigan. Sky watchers who hadn't seen auroras in years captured
beautiful photos of green and purple streamers. This is another sign
that Solar Cycle 24 is heating up. Check http://spaceweather.com
