Overview
- NOAA says strong-to-severe geomagnetic conditions persist, keeping the chance of auroras elevated into Wednesday night and Thursday.
- Measurements reached G4 severity with Kp values near 8, indicating a powerful event capable of pushing auroras to unusually low latitudes.
- Auroras were photographed across much of the United States, including rare views in South Florida, with reports extending as far south as Mexico.
- Forecasters tie the displays to multiple coronal mass ejections following a major X‑class flare, during a peak phase of Solar Cycle 25.
- Officials caution about possible disruptions to satellites, GPS and power systems, and Blue Origin postponed a New Glenn launch due to space‑weather risk.
