CME STRIKE SPARKS SEVERE GEOMAGNETIC STORM: As predicted, a CME struck Earth on June 28th (~1000 UT). The impact sparked a severe G4-class geomagnetic storm, surprising forecasters who expected only a minor G1-class event. Daylight over Europe and the Americas has so far hidden any auroras from view.

Surprised a lot of people
From solarham.com
Severe (G4) Geomagnetic Storm June 28, 2024 @ 10:20 UTC (UPDATED)
Not at all expected, a Severe (G4) geomagnetic storm is in progress following a CME passage Friday morning. The solar wind speed increased to near 500 km/s and the plasma density showed a nice increase as well over the past few hours. Needless to say, the timing is not great for aurora sky watchers in Europe and most of North America with sunlight now upon us. Further updates will be provided as the day progresses.
UPDATE: Storm conditions have since subsided. A minor (G1) geomagnetic storm watch will remain in effect for the next 12 hours while the CME disturbance continues to pass Earth.
