February 19, 2015 - Solar Activity Update, Hot Headlines

Good morning. Here is an updated look at the visible solar disk on Thursday. Solar activity remains at very low levels. Regions 2282 and newly assigned region 2286 in the southwest quadrant remain stable. A number of other sunspots are popping up around the disk and will be monitored. No Earth directed coronal mass ejections were observed during the past day.

A period of minor (G1) geomagnetic storming was observed on Tuesday night and into early Wednesday morning. The increase was the result of an enhanced solar wind stream containing periods of southward Bz. Visible aurora displays were reported across many locations at higher latitudes. Storming has since subsided.

Our friend Zoltan Kenwell in Alberta captured the beautiful display below from Alberta, Canada during the early morning hours on Tuesday. Thanks for sharing!
