From spaceweather@lists.spaceweather.com Sat Nov 24 15:12:19 2001 Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2001 18:21:53 -0600 From: SpaceWeather.com To: SpaceWeather.com Subject: Weekend Aurora Warning: Nov. 23, 2001 Space Weather News for Nov. 23, 2001 http://www.spaceweather.com NORTHERN LIGHTS: A powerful solar explosion on Nov. 22nd hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space and toward our planet -- possibly joining another CME already en route. The expanding clouds could trigger geomagnetic activity when they sweep past Earth on Nov. 24th and/or 25th. High-latitude sky watchers are likely to see Northern Lights this weekend, especially during the hours around local midnight on Saturday and Sunday. Prospects for middle-latitude observers are less certain. Tune in to SpaceWeather.com for details and updates. LEONID METEORS: For those who saw it, last weekend's Leonid meteor storm was simply unforgettable. Our growing photo gallery of the storm includes eye-catching photos of Leonid fireballs, exploding Leonids, even Leonids streaking through auroras.
