Wow! Major solar fireworks today. Charge your camera batteries and put on your finest jacket for tomorrow night as strong (G3) or perhaps even severe (G4) geomagnetic storm conditions are possible tomorrow evening (1 June) into 2 June.
I learn about an astronomical event BEFORE it happens?! Pretty exciting, I often learn about space events after they already happened 😆 Now I even get a few hours to prepare.
Is there some sensor that I can use to detect this? Will it produce some characteristic radio signal or X-ray pattern? How do I tune in?

Happy hunting. This is a spectacular one. :)

Very interesting indeed! Unfortunately I was not able to catch up with the jargon before the flux rope with a stable positive Bz component arrived, so I am not yet quite sure what that means, but I hope it turns southwards 😛
Going through charts, I see that a lot have very short time cut-offs. At most I see data from 2 days back, so I don't know if the numbers I see in the charts are special or not... Do you know if there is a way to see historical data plots of these values?
