Space Weather Update – CME & How You May Be Feeling A new Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) left the Sun on 5 September and is moving through space at moderate speed. While Earth’s geomagnetic field is mostly calm at the moment, even quiet solar activity can have subtle flow-on effects. Some people report heightened sensitivity during solar events – anything from disrupted sleep and fatigue to shifts in mood such as anxiety, restlessness, or even low mood. Others may notice physical tension, headaches

Incoming CME! Fast-Moving Solar Storm Headed Our Way A faint halo coronal mass ejection (CME) was detected blasting off from the Sun yesterday, and it appears to be Earth-directed. Clocking in at a speedy ~1300 km/s, this CME is moving fast but doesn’t seem to carry a lot of mass behind it, suggesting the possibility of a moderate to strong impact. Halo CMEs are exciting because they’re often aimed right at us, spreading out in a ring-like pattern in coronagraph imagery. We’re monitoring its tra
