Hey there, weather enthusiasts! Buckle up because we've got some space weather updates coming your way courtesy of the fine folks at the U.S. Department of Commerce and NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center.
A. Geomagnetic Activity Observation and Forecast:
In the realm of geomagnetic activity, the Kp index has been behaving itself, peaking at a modest 3 in the past 24 hours. However, brace yourselves for potential minor to moderate geomagnetic storm levels (G1-G2) from August 9th to 11th as Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) from earlier this month make their grand entrance. We're looking at Kp levels ranging from 1.67 to 6.33 - things might get a bit magnetic out there!
B. Solar Radiation Activity Observation and Forecast:
When it comes to solar radiation, NOAA's observations have been below storm levels, but don't let your guard down just yet. There's a 20% chance of minor solar radiation storms (S1 or greater) from August 9th to 11th. Keep those sunglasses handy!
C. Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast:
For all the radio aficionados out there, keep an ear out for potential radio blackouts reaching R1-R2 levels, with a 25% chance of stronger events (R3 or greater) from August 9th to 11th. The largest blackout so far hit R3 levels on August 8th, 2024, at 1935 UTC - time to tune in and stay informed!
Stay tuned for more updates and detailed information by checking out the link in our show notes. Stay safe, stay prepared, and always be weather-wise!
