Episode Synopsis

Hey there weather enthusiasts, time to dive into your Geomagnetic Activity, Solar Radiation, and Radio Blackout Forecast provided by the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center.Let's kick it off with some geomagnetic activity observations and predictions. We saw the highest Kp level hitting 4 in the last 24 hours, staying below NOAA's scale. Moving forward to Sep 24 - 26, we're expecting the peak Kp to hit around 4.67, reaching G1 (Minor) storm levels. Specifically, keep an eye out on the 25th for some action due to a glancing blow CME and a bit of High-Speed Stream influence.Shifting gears to solar radiation, NOAA reported that things have been pretty chill, staying below storm-level thresholds. Looking ahead to Sep 24 - 26, the chances of a solar radiation storm hitting S1 or greater level are low, at just 5% across those days. So, don't stress about any major solar radiation storms - it's looking pretty calm in that department.Lastly, let's chat about radio blackout activity. We had some R1 level happenings in the past day, with the most significant blackout occurring on Sep 23, 2024, at 1456 UTC. Looking at Sep 24 - 26, there's a 40% chance of hitting R1-R2 levels and a slight 10% chance of R3 or higher. So, keep your ears open for possible M-class (Minor-Moderate) flares and even a hint of X-class (Strong) flares during this time frame.For more detailed insights, be sure to check out the full report at the link in our show notes.Thank you for listening and make sure to subscribe to never miss an update. for more info http://www.quietperiodplease.comThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
