The Sun recently released a few Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). Mostly these missed Earth, until yesterday when one gave our magnetic field a nudge, creating geomagnetic unrest detectable on magnetometers around the globe, including my own here in the UK.
Here are my data which I collected through the whole event:
All quiet again now.
Thanks for looking.

Absolutely, Mark. Cycle 25 needs to pick up somewhat. A few more juicy active regions with CMEs thrown in the mixmarktownley wrote: ↑Wed Aug 04, 2021 5:58 am Thanks Stu, my spaceweather app pinged me a message about this too. Just need to activity to pep up a bit more now...
