According to several sources (see: SpaceWeather.com -- News and information about meteor showers, solar flares, auroras, and near-Earth asteroids and Potent Solar Flare Today — Auroras Tomorrow? | Sky & Telescope there's a good chance that there will be auroras further south than we usually see them. So the CME (coronal mass ejection) may arrive at Earth on Thursday, with possible 'aftershocks' going into the weekend. Anyone who is interested in seeing these should be keeping an eye out, as well as checking the Spaceweather site for updates. I know I'm going to be looking!
 
Bump for the morning crowd. And Thursday is today! Well, tonight. Sept. 11, 2014.
 
We'll see. I can't even count how many times a CME has been hyped online, only for it to only barely hit us or change directions at the last minute. This one definitely shows some promise though.
