G2 (Moderate) Geomagnetic Storm Watch for 22 Mar

G2 (Moderate) Geomagnetic Storm Watch for 22 Mar
published: Sunday, March 22, 2026 21:01 UTC

A G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storm watch is in place for March as CME influences from the past 24 hours begin to wane, but are followed by the onset of a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream. G1 (Minor) storming periods are then likely to continue into 23 March.
