All is calm on our nearest star and the same can be said about the geomagnetic conditions here at Earth. The M7.3 solar flare that occurred on 2 October was the last event really worth mentioning on the Sun. Also at Earth we are seeing nothing but quiet geomagnetic conditions. We have seen no geomagnetic instability for over three days now: the Kp-index has not been above Kp3 since the coronal hole streams passed Earth.
A lot of people come to SpaceWeatherLive to follow the Sun's activity or if there is aurora to be seen, but with more traffic comes higher server costs. Consider a donation if you enjoy SpaceWeatherLive so we can keep the website online!
