Episode Synopsis

Hey there, weather enthusiasts! Let's dive into the 3-Day Forecast brought to you by the U.S. Department of Commerce, NOAA. First up, we have the NOAA Geomagnetic Activity Observation and Forecast. Over the past 24 hours, the highest observed 3 hr Kp was 3, staying below NOAA Scale levels. Looking ahead to Jul 16 through Jul 18, we are expecting the highest 3 hr Kp to be around 4.00, still below NOAA Scale levels. So, no G1 (Minor) or greater geomagnetic storms are on the horizon.Moving on to the NOAA Solar Radiation Activity Observation and Forecast. Solar radiation levels from NOAA GOES-18 have been below storm thresholds. Keep an eye out for a slight 15% chance of S1 (Minor) solar radiation storms from Jul 16 to Jul 18, mainly due to AR 3738's promising location.Lastly, let's chat about the NOAA Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast. We've seen radio blackouts hit R3 levels in the past 24 hours, with the most significant one occurring on Jul 14, 2024, at 0234 UTC. Looking ahead, there's a 65% likelihood of R1-R2 blackouts and a 15% chance of R3 or greater from Jul 16 to Jul 18, again linked to AR 3738.So, there you have it - a mix of geomagnetic activity, solar radiation storms, and radio blackouts to keep an eye on.
