Of interest, the aurora intensity coming from big cities which are not favorable to seeing this phenomenon. There was nothing supra-ordinary made by the sun. Overall, it seems to me that it's from this end (Earth) that favored all of this.
The geomagnetic situation is showing signs of stabilizing
After two days of intense magnetic storms, the geomagnetic situation has begun to show signs of steady stabilization. Currently, the interplanetary magnetic field induction has dropped sharply; its high value was the main factor causing geomagnetic indices to move from the green to the red zone. Elevated solar wind speeds still persist, but this factor alone now has only a limited impact.
The recent storm had two peaks: from March 20 to 21 and from March 22 to 23, reaching a strong G3 level in both cases. Each peak resulted in very intense auroras, the lower limit of which, according to some reports, extended to latitudes of about 50 degrees. A significant number of reports came from major cities, despite the strong artificial light typically present in such places. On the night from Sunday to Monday, the aurora was even photographed in Moscow on several occasions.
