There is a 20% chance for an aurora after about 20:00 UT this evening.  
That is when the arrival of the solar particles will impact the Earth.  
It will probably not trigger a big event, but it is wise to check and be 
aware.   If that X flare had been more Earth directed it would have 
turned out great for AU on 6 thru at least 222.

Like the announcer said at the end of  the B movie, _The Thing_, " Watch 
the skies..Keep watching the skies."
