Space Weather News for Nov. 7, 2004
http://spaceweather.com

Big sunspot 696 unleashed an X-class solar flare on Sunday, Nov. 7th, and
probably hurled another coronal mass ejection (CME) toward Earth. Solar
wind conditions are favorable for a geomagnetic storm now (late Nov. 7th)
and may become even more so when the CME arrives. Sky watchers: be alert
for auroras on Nov. 7th, 8th and 9th. The best time to look is usually
around local midnight.
