CME IMPACT: A coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth's magnetic
field on Sept. 30th. At first, the impact was weak and
produced little effect, but now (the early hours of Oct. 1st)
moderately-strong geomagnetic storms are brewing in the CME's
wake. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for
auroras, especially during the hours around local
midnight. Glare from the Harvest Moon will reduce
visibility. Check http://spaceweather.com for photos and
