>Three important CMEs (coronal mass ejections) were observed on the 21st and
>22nd of May. Details follow, but first a look at current conditions:
>
>Aurora conditions exist at this moment. The shock that reached the Earth
>environment around 1030UT today is likely to induce major storm levels in
>the next few hours. In addition, the probable
>combination of the two last CME on May 22 is likely to arrive on May 24
>late, causing active to major storm magnetic disturbances. WATCH FOR
>CONTINUAL AURORA. Degraded HF Communications, especially over the poles
>and higher latitudes are likely. Global HF Conditions: Low Latitude is
>POOR. Mid Latitude is POOR. High Latitude is in a Polar Cap Absorption Event.

>Info on the three CMEs:
>The first one was apparently connected with the M1.5 flare on May 21 at
>2139UT. The second CME seems correlated with a second X-ray burst (M1)
>around 2300UT. The third one (the most impressive and fastest) is clearly
>related to a spectacular filament eruption. (Edited from several alerts
>created by SIDC (RWC-Belgium)).
