A large solar flare triggered a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) that is expected to hit the Earth’s magnetic field Sunday evening and into the early morning hours of Monday.

Countries affected include parts of Germany, Denmark, Russia, Lithuania, Belarus, Kazakhstan, the US (Alaska), Canada, Ireland, and the UK.
