SWPC has issued a G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storm Watch for 11 Oct 2026. The Watch covers the expected arrival of two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that left the Sun on 07 and 08 Oct. The 08 Oct CME is the faster of the two, and forecasters expect it to merge with the slower 07 Oct CME on the way to Earth.
