A Ring of Fire and a Bumpy Ride | Space Weather News 5 October 2023

This week our Sun keeps activity at moderate levels. We have had quite a few mini-solarstorm launches that arent expected to cause intense storming, but they could give us a bumpy ride over the next few days. This means aurora photographers at high latitudes could get some nice aurora views this week. Amatuer radio operators are also dealing with moderate noise on the dayside radio bands, but radio blackouts are remaining reasonably short-lived and mild. This trend will likely continue over the next few days before flare risk begins to rise as new regions rotate into view next week. Learn more about the mini-solarstorms hitting Earth, see which regions will soon rotate into Earth view, and find out where to view the coming annular solar eclipse on October 14!
