   CHANCE OF MAGNETIC STORMS: A large coronal hole is turning toward Earth, and   
   it is spewing a stream of high-speed solar wind into space. NOAA forecasters   
   expect the stream to reach our planet on Oct. 25-26 with a 35% chance of   
   geomagnetic storms when it arrives. Storm levels could reach category G2,   
   which means the glow of auroras might be visible not only around the Arctic   
   Circle but also in northern-tier US states such as Minnesota and Michigan.

   The dark area in this extreme UV image of the sun is a coronal hole--a region   
   where magnetic fields have opened up and allowed solar wind to escape. Date:
