Today's Weather Trivia:
2008: Heavy rains, 35 mm in 12 hours, fell near Pangnirtung, NU. The rains
along with temperatures 8 degrees warmer than normal and strong winds caused
rapid snowmelt that carved a 10 m channel through permafrost right down to
bedrock. The outflow washed out a road and 2 bridges over the Duvall River.
Hundreds of residents had no access to municipal services.

Sky Events:

Solar Activity:
Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels with a chance for
C-class events for the next three days (08-10 June).
.
AURORA ('Northern Lights') WATCH:
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on day one (08 June)
and on the beginning of day two (09 June). Midday on day two, active to
minor
storm levels are expected as the CME, associated with todays M2/2N flare
from Region 1226, becomes geoeffective. With the arrival of this CME, there
is a slight chance for major storm periods at high latitudes. On day three
(10 June), as the effects of the CME continue, active levels, with chance
for minor storm periods, are also expected.
