last forecast didn’t pan out but another chance this weekend

The last post we made with the great forecast didn’t pan out as we would’ve liked but there is another great chance at lights this weekend.

G1 watch (possible Kp 5) has been issued for Saturday, Oct 22.
If it arrives on time, we should see the aurora being reported in
northern Europe first, then eastern Canada and the northeastern states as it gets dark that night. Northern states and Alaska Saturday night.
Storming is predicted to continue 2 nights.
Let’s hope the weather is clear!

On a side note, watch for the annual Orionid meteor shower (about Oct. 16 to Oct. 26).
