FROM THE AUSTRALIAN SPACE FORECAST CENTRE

A weak, slow moving coronal mass ejection has the potential to impact
the Earth (glancing blow) within the next 24 hours, possibly resulting
in Active geomagnetic conditions with the potential for visible
auroras during local nighttime hours. Aurora alerts will follow if
significant geomagnetic activity actually occurs.
