The CME from yesterday's X5.1 flare is inbound and on final approach.
There are various predictions for its arrival time, but most are suggesting between 18h and 21h UT today (12 Nov).

The strong geomagnetic storms have triggered a "Grid Emergency" in New Zealand.
Transpower is acting to protect its power grid by shutting off key sections to prevent damage. Some areas of New Zealand may lose power temporarily.

G5 Geomagnetic Storm!
You'll start seeing hundreds of pictures all over the news today. Bright pink and red aurors have been seen down to very low latitudes (for those without heavy cloud cover 😫).
This one is from West Cork in Ireland.

An S2 solar radiation storm is now in progress. The scale runs from S0 to S5.
Possible effects at S2:
Biological: Passengers and crew in high-flying aircraft at high latitudes may be exposed to elevated radiation risk.
Satellite operations: Infrequent single-event upsets possible.

A large X1.8 flare peaked at 07h35 UT 09 Nov.
A type II emission and 10.7cm radio burst were observed. A large halo CME can be seen on Lacso C2 imagery.
The CME is not squarely Earth-directed,but it will be enough to cause significant geomagnetic effects in a few days.

All of a sudden it looks like space weather has taken the night off! No strong flares for 14 hours, and the solar wind has calmed down enough for "QUIET" geomagnetic conditions to be reported across the board.
A calm before a storm, perhaps? We shall see.
