Largely agree, shouldn't put excessive faith in any move this near the end of any contract period.

All, be careful betting off trades tomorrow - a bit of extra time might be in order - if possible:

"Magnetic Storm Update - 8.27.98 1300 UTC

The major magnetic storm event continues and as predicted by the SEC has gotten more intense overnight and this morning. Planetary magnetism [PK] averages have now risen to 7-8 on the 0-9 scale representing severe levels of storming. We have been in the red [storm levels] for over 30 consecutive hours now. This is by far the longest continuous period of storm level readings that I have seen.

The Proton event continues as well with levels ever so slowly subsiding. Electron flux is very volatile and magnetometer readings at the GOES satellites are all over the place in a state of intense fluctuation. Another magnetic storm watch, although for lower levels of storming, has been issued for tomorrow indicating the SEC's belief that this disturbance will take another 24 hours to pass by Earth.

Solar/Magnetic/Quake Update - 8.28.98 2230 UTC

Flare activity was low today with only a few borderline C-Class events. The main region continues to decline, yet remains capable of an isolated M-Class event. The growing region continued to grow and become more complex suggesting C- and M-Class activity may soon be generated. Numerous small spots have emerged on the visible disk and a disappearing solar filament may indicate that a CME occurred.

The major-severe magnetic storm has finally abated for the most part. PK readings dropped into the green levels for the first time in around 36 hours. The electron levels remain extremely high, in fact they are currently running ten times higher than the threshold for an electron event. Proton levels continue elevated and slowly declining. The magnetic field should continue to grow quieter. If a CME was associated with the DSF mentioned above, it could bring more active conditions to the geomagnetic field on the 30th and 31st.
