Unhappy Oh well

Not much luck aurora-wise tonight. Did see a few satellites and lingering Perseid meteorites. Should have checked w/Spaceweather.com beforehand ...

"WEAK IMPACT: A coronal mass ejection hit Earth today at approximately 1630 UT (12:30 EDT), but the impact was weak. It did not spark a geomagnetic storm. Unless circumstances change, auroras are unlikely tonight. "
