Region 0696 on the sun continues to be active, with two large events in
the last 24 hours.  The latter of these events is very fast (2000 km/s)
and the effects should reach Earth early on the 11th of November, GMT.

The Earth's magnetic field continues to be disturbed by these events and
we should expect to see maximum auroral activity through the 12th.

Look for aurora from a dark place with a view of the poleward horizon at
half hour intervals throughout the night with the largest activity
expected at your local midnight.
