This image above is what the northern part of the Planet looked like during this ongoing Solar storm. Alberta, Canada was blanketed by this impressive display of Aurora Borealis, in one of the biggest events of Solar Cycle 25, as reported by SpaceWeather:
THE STORM IS SUBSIDING (BUT IT'S NOT OVER): As predicted, a halo CME struck Earth's on June 1st, sparking a severe (G4) geomagnetic storm.It was one of the biggest space weather events of Solar Cyle 25. The storm is subsiding now, but it's not over. Minor (G1) to moderate (G2) storms remain possible on June 2nd as Earth's magnetosphere reverberates from this significant blow.
