A coronal hole is facing our planet today. While this coronal hole is poorly defined in the sense that there is not one large opening, we do see several openings (dark areas) which combined cover a significant portion of the Sun's northern hemisphere. We even see an opening near the equator that has already passed the central meridian.
A lot of people come to SpaceWeatherLive to follow the Sun's activity or if there is aurora to be seen, but with more traffic comes higher server costs. Consider a donation if you enjoy SpaceWeatherLive so we can keep the website online!
