'WAITING FOR THE NEXT CME: A geomagnetic storm is underway, but it is minor (G1). Conditions won't intensify again until the next CME arrives. NOAA forecasters are currently predicting a return to extreme (G5) storming on May 12th. We think May 13th is more likely when a CME from yesterday's X5.8-class flare is expected to arrive. Either way, stay tuned!'

For sure good memories. Especially if ones can watch the auroras.
For me I was still far away from monitoring the events in space. Science was something which I detested.
Just started mid 2019 to get into the materie and began to deal wth physics. Gosh it was a long way but worth it. And I am still learning day by day. Reading, trying to understand and rereading.
We are not able to see the beauty in the sky called aurora borealis. But to monitor the events and trying to follow the developement of geomagn storms is pure excitement.
Cheers my friends of the good old days.

That I would recommend for anyone getting
started, is learn UTC.
Universal Coordinated Time. All the
science sites use it, helps to dial in
what the graphs are saying.
So here in California, add 7 hours. So
it's 23:34 UTC, or 4:34 p.m. local.
Always in military time too. So no matter
where the info originates, it's always the
same clock.
