NOAA Confirms Strong G3 Geomagnetic Storm Affecting Earth

Forecasters expect elevated space weather conditions through November 7.

Overview

  • NOAA and experts say the disturbance reached G3 strength on Thursday morning after G1–G2 levels the previous day.
  • The event is driven by recent solar flares and coronal mass ejections, including 15 C-class and three M-class flares on November 5 and additional flares early November 6.
  • Power transmission, satellite operations and GPS navigation face a risk of degradation or brief disruptions, according to official guidance.
  • Spaceweather.com forecasts further CME arrivals through November 8 as NOAA and ESA continue real-time monitoring and operational updates.
  • Auroras could appear at lower latitudes than usual, and authorities report no direct risk to human health at ground level.
