This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University:<br /><a href="https://www.millersville.edu/swen" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.millersville.edu/swen</a><br />Our Sun plays Cupid this week by ensuring we have some solar storming through this upcoming Valentines Day weekend. Even as we calm down from some fast solar wind, another pocket of fast wind is on its way to Earth. Sandwiched within the fast wind will be several stealthy solar storms and a narrow filament, which should serve to enhance aurora views, especially at high latitudes. Aurora photographers down at mid-latitudes should also get a chance for some shows, as long as the aurora outshines the bright moon. Amateur radio operators should enjoy some relative quiet on the dayside bands just in time for the big DX contest this weekend, although the nightside might be more difficult to work during the storming. Overall radio blackout risk is down and should remain so over the next few days. GPS users should also enjoy decent reception on the dayside, but nightside reception could be a bit dicey, especially near dawn and dusk and near aurora. Learn the details of the coming fast solar wind, watch some stealthy storms sneak of the Sun, and find out what else is in store.<br />Want early access to these forecasts, tutorials on Space Weather, & more?
