AURORA ALERT] G1 (MINOR) GEOMAGNETIC DISTURBANCE IN PROGRESS (21 March, 2026)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


https://www.sws.bom.gov.au/ 

A minor geomagnetic storm (G1) with a Kindex of 5 is currently ongoing. And yes, it’s daylight. 

If this storm persists and strengthens (there is a prediction of G3 major storm levels), there is a strong possibility of aurora.  

As I wrote before, the Moon is in crescent phase and will not interfere with seeing aurora in the evening and early morning.  Keep an eye out and be patient, as the magnetic polarity of the wind fluctuates significantly and aurora may come and go.

As of now the solar wind conditions are:
Solar Wind Parameters Used:
   Date: 21 03 2026 0601 UT
   Velocity:   452 km/sec
   Bz:   -3.0 nT
   Density =    8.0 p/cc

Calculated Information from Solar wind parameters:
   Magnetopause Stand Off Distance  =   10.6Re
   Solar Wind Dynamic Pressure Dp =   1.36nPa

G1 (MINOR) GEOMAGNETIC DISTURBANCE IN PROGRESS (K OF 5 REACHED)
PRELIMINARY AUSTRALIAN REGION K INDICES FOR 20 03 26: 2334 3345

GEOMAGNETIC ACTIVITY FORECAST 21 Mar: G2-G3 22 Mar: G1-G2 23 Mar: G0-G2

*****************************************************************************

Dark sky sites have the best chance of seeing anything, and always allow around 5 minutes for your eyes to become dark adapted.

As always look to the south for shifting red/green glows, mostly green at the moment.
