G1 Class Geomagnetic Storm / Solar Watch April 13, 2012
G1 Geomagnetic Storm is now in progress due to the arrival of a high speed solar wind stream from coronal hole (CH512) buffeting the earths magnetic field.
New Sunspot group 1455 continues to grow rapidly without producing anything of significance as yet but there may be a chance for a M-Class flare around AR11455 in the coming days.
A powerful Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) released off the sun April 9th indicate a potential for a significant event felt here on earth in 9-12 days. A significant volcanic eruption, Major Tornado swarms or outbreak in North America or out of season Typhoon/Tropical Cyclone in the western pacific/Indian ocean region is possible from this energetic event. Time frame April 21-24.
