Best viewed with window expanded.
A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) swept past Earth on Tuesday afternoon. The ACE Spacecraft detected an interplanetary shock at 19:58 UTC. A geomagnetic sudden impulse measuring 25nT was detected at 20:49 UTC. This signaled the passage of the IP shock past our planet. The initial impact was weak, however a south tilting solar wind / Bz component aided in raising geomagnetic activity.
