Today’s top story: Space weather forecasters are predicting G1 to G2 (minor to moderate) geomagnetic storms overnight tonight and through tomorrow. And that means possible auroras! Light displays could be visible from northern US latitudes such as the states of Washington and Wisconsin from the early hours of June 25. The disturbance is expected because a coronal hole – an area of lower density in the sun’s atmosphere – is now sending a stream of high-speed solar wind straight at Earth. Clear skies, aurora chasers. If you manage to take a picture of the aurora, share it with us here.
A new stream of high-speed solar wind from a coronal hole – an area of lower density in the sun’s atmosphere – is expected to start buffering Earth in the coming days. Forecasters are predicting possible geomagnetic storming at G1-G2 (minor-moderate) levels beginning late on June 24 or early on June 25. And that could mean auroras at high latitudes! Stay tuned.

Bottom line: Sun news June 24, 2025. A large coronal hole on the solar disk is sending solar wind our way, which may cause auroral displays at high latitudes overnight tonight and tomorrow.
