Good Morning Folks! The Sunspot Number has jumped up to 186. The Solar Flux Index has risen to 188. A CME hurled into space by yesterday's fusillade of X-flares will strike Earth early next week, probably on June 4th. Its impact could spark a strong G3-class geomagnetic storm with auroras at mid-latitudes. Chance of flares today: 75% for M-Class, 35% for X-Class.
