Sun news September 30: Happy perihelion, Parker Solar Probe!| EarthSky
Our active sun continues to disturb Earth’s geomagnetic field. At the time of this writing a G1 (minor) geomagnetic storm is ongoing. The threshold was reached at 9:15 UTC. We saw activity the whole time during our observation period between 11 UTC yesterday and 11 UTC today. Late yesterday and early today we saw another G1 disturbance, during the 0-3 UTC period. People have reported auroral displays in Europe, Canada and the U.S. The G1 storming occurred during the dark hours in the U.S. ...| EarthSky

Coronal holes appear as dark areas in the solar corona in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft x-ray solar images. They appear dark because they are cooler, less dense regions than the surrounding plasma and are regions of open, unipolar magnetic fields. This open, magnetic field line structure allows the solar wind to escape more readily into space, resulting in streams of relatively fast solar wind and is often referred to as a high speed stream in the context of analysis of structures in int...| www.swpc.noaa.gov
