Hi all I have just received the following from spaceweather.com, and besides
the fact they have typed the wrong date it does not look very promising for
the near future.

Space Weather news for April 19, 2003
http://spaceweather.com
Geomagnetic activity surged for a while on Monday, April 28th, when Earth
glided through a solar wind stream. Northern Lights in the United States
descended as far south as Wisconsin. More auroras are possible on May 1st
when our planet is expected to encounter another solar wind stream flowing
from a coronal hole on the sun.
Meanwhile, the sunspot number is rising. The face of the sun is peppered
with active regions--one stretching nearly 10 Earth-diameters from end to
end. The impressive sunspot group is easy to observe using safe solar
projection methods.
