Chance for aurora borealis - the Planetary K-index is above 6

And from NASA's Spaceweather:
G2-CLASS GEOMAGNETIC STORM--UNDERWAY NOW: A stream of high-speed solar wind is lashing Earth's magnetic field, blowing at speeds near 700 km/s. This is sparking geomagnetic storms around the poles. At the moment, a G2-class storm is underway. If this storm persists until nightfall, sky watchers in the USA as far south as Wisconsin, Michigan and Montana could see Northern Lights. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.
We live on an interesting planet. Love it here!
