Update: 5:00pm Eastern Time:
Again, tonight, you will test your skills and see how well you know the news – notes to follow:
Notes:
Both plasma filaments are entering primary geo-effective position. They each survived an instability today, and will present our #1 eruption threat for the next few days as the sunspots are devoid of delta class.
The earthquakes continue in Oklahoma – that 4.1 is not yesterday’s quake, it is a new one.

The next chart is the KP index – the measure of geomagnetic disruption. As you can see, we below even a minor level of instability, and it was important to check because the coronal hole stream has maintained speed above 400km/sec (still not a powerful stream) but with the density beginning to rise once more – bringing the KP back up to 3.
Next… zzzzzzzzz.
Bonus – Judge the coronal hole power:
