A similar NOAA model agrees: The CME should arrive during the late hours of Feb. 17th. First contact is expected to produce a minor G1-class geomagnetic storm, intensifying to moderate G2-class storming on Feb. 18th. During such storms, auroras can spill into the United States as far south as, e.g., New York and Idaho (55 deg. geomagnetic latitude). Aurora alerts: SMS Text.

My wife wants to go to a cabin rental for our 10-year anniversary in 2 weeks. I've already printed out walking directions in case of something like this. She says I'm paranoid, I say I'm prepared.

I got this book for Christmas when it came out in 97/98, I think this is as likely to happen as any EOTW scenario. It's a phenomenon that does happen and there is no telling when, no it's overdue, we don't know what causes them we got educated guesses. It's literally being at the wrong place at the wrong time,
Get it for her to read.

Man, I tried to think ahead with the on foot route in case something like this happens while we're up there camping and she said she's about ready to not want to go lol. I tell her the same thing every time.....one day you'll thank me.
