we could be in for a real show 2nite

Anybody know how long can these storms last for, and do we have any idication how long this one will last..

It could last a few days on one CME. Another CME is heading for Earth and it could intensify the ongoing storm when it strikes. So if you missed this morning's display--many people did miss it because of morning sunlight--you might get another chance tonight
