HIGH LATITUDE AURORA WATCH: Today's surprise geomagnetic storm, described below, is subsiding a little, but it is far from over. Solar wind conditions favor continued storminess; currently, indices are fluctuating between category G1 (Minor) and G2 (Moderate). These storm levels could produce auroras in northern-tier US states after nightfall especially during the hours around local midnight. Aurora alerts: SMS Text. SURPRISE GEOMAGNETIC STORM: The forecast did not call for this. During the early hours of March 23rd, a crack opened in Earth's magnetic field, and stayed open for more than 8 hours. Solar wind poured through the gap to fuel a strong G3-class geomagnetic storm. The sun was coming up in Kalispell, Montana, when Philip Granrud saw bright auroras shining through the twilight: |

Northern lights appear over Northern California in rare event Photo of Amy Graff Amy Graff , SFGATE March 24, 2023 Updated: March 24, 2023 7:47 p.m. Dakota Snyder photographed the aurora borealis on a flight from Los Angeles to Phoenix.

Courtesy Dakota Snyder In a rare event, the dazzling phenomenon known as the aurora borealis was visible in parts of Northern California on Thursday night. Skywatchers who caught sight of the shimmery display posted images from Yreka and Lakeport and from aboard a flight from Los Angeles to Phoenix. The northern lights are most commonly on display in the farthest reaches of the world, and people travel to places like Iceland and Greenland to see them, but according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, a geomagnetic storm made the phenomenon visible as far south as Alabama, as well as Northern California, on the night of March 23. Greg Williams, president of the Shasta Astronomy Club, said that a geomagnetic storm is a fancy way to say the "sun burped." "It threw off a little bit extra charged particles in the solar winds, and those particles interacted with the Earth’s magnetic field," Williams went on. These geomagnetic storms drive the northern lights, and this particular event was classified as a G4 on a scale from G1 to G5. The peak was last night between 8 and 11 p.m. If you missed the lights last night in California, you're out of luck. NOAA's forecast for Friday night's aurora shows the lights appearing much farther north. Dakota Snyder photographed the Aurora Borealis on a flight from Los Angeles to Phoenix. Dakota Snyder photographed the Aurora Borealis on a flight from Los Angeles to Phoenix. Courtesy Dakota Snyder Chelsea Peters, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service's Sacramento office, said that light pollution and cloud cover made the lights hard to see Thursday night. Peters said the office received only a few reports of people seeing them in the farthest reaches of Northern California. "The events that go this far south are pretty rare," she said. A severe (G4) geomagnetic storm alert in effect. Northern Lights (Aurora) may be seen tonight as far south as Alabama and Northern California.

"They would have been above the clouds," he said. "If you look at the movement, it’s moving in the opposite direction of the clouds. The fact that it’s in arcs and loops and it’s bright tells me that something is going on that’s electric in nature." Seeing the Northern lights #auroraborealis on a flight from LA to PHX is CRAZY. That’s so far south. 🤯 tonight was wild. pic.twitter.com/s9OuuzyKVb — Dakota Snider (@dakotasnider) March 24, 2023 While Williams didn't catch the lights in person last night, he was impressed by what he saw in the footage. "That’s the most spectacular view of it that I’ve ever seen this far down south," he said. |

I sense it is from an event that happened on the 19th...I felt it more intensely than I have felt anything solar it did not register as far as I can tell or was shown on the graphs. Interestingly no one covered it and I looked multiple places...though I did find movies someone made from helioviewer on it...I thought is everybody asleep? |

Thanks...I skipped through it, I look at most of the data graphs he shows or something similar since 2004...I did not see he mentions the event on the 19th, I actually think I looked there wondering if anyone else felt it or noticed it but there was nothing on that event just the images and the graphs registered no x rays or anything but yet I felt it. If you can point out the time stamp to me mentioning the event on the 19th I be glad to look but not up for 18 minutes right now. I know the coronal hole is also a factor but I do feel to be as high as it is now the flare on the 19th is most likely a major factor. I don't know that the ptb don't always show certain things exactly as they are in terms of data but my personal extra sensors know and feel something happened on the 19th. |

spaceweather.com mentions GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH: Minor (G1-class) geomagnetic storms could happen on March 20-21 due to a possible glancing blow from an incoming CME. The CME was hurled into space on March 17th by the eruption of a magnetic filament containing dark plasma. Because of the "Russell-McPherron effect," even a weak impact around the equinox could spark a good display of high latitude auroras,. Aurora alerts: SMS Text. But apparently it was stronger than mentioned. Many been feeling very crappy for awhile now. this is what I posted on 19th yet I didn't mention the ongpoing crippling I was getting Date: March 19, 2023 at 13:36:40 From: pamela Subject: Re: Rt eyelid has been spazing since yesterday/results for AK M 5.4 - 19 km SSW of Anchor Point, Alaska 2023-03-19 15:06:27 (UTC)59.610衹 151.907訖65.4 km depth At March 17, 2023 at 19:14:45, pamela wrote: Rt eye is usually for Hawaii, so not sure if this is Hawaii related or not but still getting rt shoulder stuff for PNW/JDF/Offshore N CA, offshore WA/Oregon& W Canada, BC areas. & AK rt collar bone.

The one I was referring to happened on the 19th not the 17th and I provided a clip of it in my previous post. Forgive me for responding, never mind. |

I understand you wrote the 19th. The video goes into why we might feel the affect sooner. I always feel it sooner too. |

So there is a time marker in the video where the event with the flare on the 19th probably backside or a filament on the backside occurred? |

A time stamp would be nice. I watch the data graphs all the time...it's nice to know someone else noticed it ...I do know all the other data already. |

I sifted to find the time stamp about 4-5 minutes in though the channel host did not show it all the way through like the other videos did that I shared. I knew it might as he said glance us and yes it all factors in as there was a coronal hole factor as well it all together probably made the recent kp index rise as it did...combo events impact. I do feel the flare on the south was a big one as I say I felt it and I knew this already...thanks. |

p.s. I already understand without viewing the entire video the coronal hole and other event that happened prior to the 19th. I am specifically interested as I said if anyone anywhere speaks to the event on the 19th. I don't think so though from what I have sifted through. No matter it's past for now anyways but it felt more intense than the one on the backside that was followed by the Carrington Event chatter. |

p.s. not that it matters that much, but here is a link to the thread of the event on the 19th with some links to the clips of the seemingly (?) backside event (not sure)....maybe it was just for me to take notice and heed in terms of incoming feels...that's all |
