Magnetic North has moved

[Rosemary S]

This morning, I had a peak at my compass. We have moved 3 dregree toward West since my last post about magnetic north moving. This has happen overnight because yesterday, magnetic north was at its usual spot on the compass.

Cool

Yes indeed it did. It must have been quite powerful to have change the magnetic north of Earth. Well now magnetic north is back to its normal position.

Earth has been being hit with a geomagnetic storm the past few days.

The Magnetic effect is now gone. The Compass since 6:00pm Pacific time has move back 2 degrees. I suspected something like this would occur. By tomorrow, magnetic north should be back to it usual position unless something else happens.

Magnetic North is still unchanged at 3 degrees West of it previous position.

You are welcome Kim. I checked the compass this afternoon after work. The needle has not change yet. It will be interesting to see if the needle will go back to its initial direction.
