SPACE WEATHER

This week I get help doing the forecast from a team of stealthy solar storm experts, who have all gathered in Bern, Switzerland for an ISSI team meeting. The Sun has also chosen this week to become quite active with multiple bright regions that will boost the solar flux for amateur radio operators and emergency responders. We also have a coronal hole that will be sending us some fast solar wind in the next few days, which brings good news for aurora photographers, especially at high latitudes. Come meet the ISSI team of physicists, who are helping shape the future of space weather prediction, catch up on some recent aurora photos, and see what else the Sun has in store!

Hit that like button! Neoscribe: https://goo.gl/DgTGwf Today we are looking at the newest addition to the International Space Station. ASIM or the Atmosphere-Space Interaction Monitor is a special observatory designed to track and analyze upper atmospheric lightning phenomenon. Space Storm Hunter as it is also know tracks transient luminous events that entail such things like ELVES, Sprites, Blue Jets and Electron Positron beams made by dark lightning. This project by the ESA is designed to help us get a better understanding of the effects of lightning in our Stratosphere, Mesosphere and all the way to the edge of space in our Ionosphere. Hopefully the findings of this research will open up key insights into the highest and most rare events in our atmosphere. ******************************************************************** SOURCES: https://goo.gl/U7r7Y8 ********************************************************************* Follow me on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ZakDTV/ Twitter : https://twitter.com/ZakDTV Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/zakdtv Gmail : [email protected] **********************************************************************

Fast solar wind bombards Earth this week from a large coronal hole gracing much of the Sun's face. We have already reached storm conditions from the early blast of this wind, with aurora dipping down into mid-latitudes. We will likely reach active conditions again sporadically throughout this week. Aurora photographers should stay on their toes, especially at high-latitudes. Amateur radio operators should enjoy auroral propagation modes, especially at night, and GPS users should enjoy clear signals away from the aurora. On top of this storm, the Sun gives us a momentary glimpse at an active region that looks to be coming from the new solar cycle. As cycles typically overlap each other by a few years, this is not uncommon. In fact, we will see more and more of it in the coming months. See details on this current solar storm & where aurora might be lurking, learn how ham radio & GPS fares this week, and glimpse into the future of our star!

The Sun has settled down this week after what looked to be a promising beginning. We had high hopes for region 2703 as it rotated into Earth view, but it has since fizzled and we are now once again with a spotless Sun. The bright region that was once 2703 remains visible and it still shows signs of life, but solar flux remains at solar minimum conditions. This is bad news for amateur radio operators and emergency responders, who were hoping for better radio propagation. As for aurora, there is a small chance this week for shows at high latitudes due to a remnant coronal hole sending pockets of fast solar wind, but things will likely remain quiet at mid-latitudes. However, more chances for solar storming come next week, when a large coronal hole gives us a much better chance for aurora. Catch more details on this coronal hole, learn how region 2703 is affecting amateur radio and GPS operations, and see what else the Sun has in store this week!

A new active region rotates into Earth-view this week upping the solar flux and giving amateur radio and emergency communicators something to cheer about over this spring break holiday. Aurora photographers, who have been busy the past couple of weeks catching elusive aurora over many parts of the world can take a break and GPS users, especially at high latitudes can expect quieter conditions this week. Catch up on aurora photographs form the recent solar storms, learn more about this active region rotating into view and see when to expect the next set of solar storms!

Like this content? Please consider becoming a patron: https://patreon.com/DeepAstronomy Eruptions from the Sun cause Aurora and are the drivers of space weather throughout the solar system. Creating beautiful night time displays and interesting features in the atmospheres of outer planets like Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus, space weather can also disrupt communications on Earth and damage power grid equipment. But understanding space weather is complex and requires a 3 dimensional understanding of the magnetic structure of solar eruptions and how they propagate outwards. How is that done? By combining data from several spacecraft spread around Earth’s orbit and constructing 3D computer models a team of researchers is examining what happens when an ejection occurs and creates a shock wave. In particular, they are examining data from ESA/NASA’s Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)and the twin Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) satellites. Join Tony Darnell and Carol Christian during Afternoon Astronomy Coffee on March 22 at 3PM Eastern time as they discuss with Angelos Vourlidas (Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab) and Ryun Young Kwan (George Mason University) how they visualize the Sun’s Coronal Mass Ejections and what significance such events have for solar system weather.

Solar storming has subsided momentarily, but a coronal hole connected to the one that sent us fast wind last week is still very much a part of the picture. This part of the coronal hole isnt as well formed so we are expecting pockets of fast wind and sporadic storming, but its still enough that it could bring us more aurora this week. It might also help emergency communications and amateur radio operators. Catch this forecast "shortie," which will give you the latest update for aurora, GPS, and amateur radio conditions, and what to expect over the next few days. My next longer forecast will include more details into whats coming and catch you up on the latest aurora pictures from the recent storms!

According to many media sources, a massive solar storm is supposed to be ravaging Earth today. But the stories are overblown. Indeed a solar storm is hitting Earth now due to some fast solar wind from a coronal that has rotated into the earth-strike zone this week, but storming is expected to be mild and sporadic, causing minor inconveniences for GPS users, emergency responders, and amateur radio operators. Learn the real truth about the strength of the solar storm hitting thus far, where and when its possible to see aurora, catch up on photos from the last solar storm, and see and what else the Sun has in store this week!

The Sun's activity both fizzles and picks up this week. Old region 2699 that we had high hopes would boost the solar flux as it rotated into earth view has fizzled. This means amateur radio and emergency communicators will continue to suffer from poor radio propagation this week. But the Sun counters by launching several solar storms, one that is Earth directed. Along with the remnants of a coronal hole sending us some sporadic fast wind, we should expect a mild disturbance from this activity to last several days. Aurora is easily possible down to high latitudes and we might even get some short-lived shows at mid-latitudes as well. learn the details of the coming solar storm, what happened to the old active region 2699, and what else the Sun has in store.

The Sun quiets down this week after a series of solar storms have given us gorgeous aurora all over the world. Although aurora photographers get a rest, the amateur radio bands should be coming alive again as old region 2699 will be rotating into Earth view in a few days. This means emergency responders and amateur radio operators should enjoy a boost in radio propagation this week, but GPS operators need not worry as this returning region poses no immediate threat for radio blackouts.

We await the arrival of the Valentine's Day solar storm, which will be followed by some fast solar wind just behind it. This means we should enjoy some extended storm conditions over the next few days with a chance for aurora down to mid-latitudes! Meanwhile region 2699 continues to boost the solar flux for amateur radio operators, but this will only last for a few more days until the region rotates onto the Sun's backside and out of Earth view. Learn the what kind of storm conditions to expect, when radio propagation for amateur radio and emergency responders will worsen, and why it can be hard to predict the arrival of some solar storms!

On February 11, 2010, NASA launched a spacecraft to study the inner workings of the sun. The new Solar Dynamics Observatory was made to take the most detailed and comprehensive measurements of the sun ever. The satellite orbits Earth, but its orbit allows it to look at the sun continuously. It looks for activity like sunspots and solar flares, but it also studies the sun's magnetic field. By better understanding the sun's crazy and warped magnetic fields, scientists hope to better predict space weather events that spew harmful radiation toward Earth. The Solar Dynamics Observatory launched just in time to see the sun during the peak of its 11-year solar cycle.

The Sun wakes up & fires a near M-class flare just after the historic launch of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket with our favorite Starman, Major Tom, on board. All this while we wait for some moderately fast solar wind to hit Earth with a mild solar storm and shower us with aurora views once again. Learn the details of the coming solar storm, how much amateur radio operators, emergency responders, and GPS users will be affected by the radio noise coming from the fiery new active region, and see how the SpaceX launch heralds in a new era for space weather and changes our relationship with the skies beyond our home planet.

The Wildest Weather in the Universe Hannah Wakeford, Space Telescope Science Institute Though we may complain about it, Earth has nothing on the universe when it comes to wild weather. Within our own solar system, there are storms so large that our entire planet would be engulfed three times over. The thousands of exoplanets we have uncovered feature not only alien worlds with alien sunsets, but also places where gems rain down from the sky. Join Dr. Wakeford for an adventure into the most extreme weather known to science. Host: Dr. Frank Summers Recorded live on Tuesday, February 6, 2018 at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, MD, USA For more information: http://hubblesite.org/about_us/public-talks.shtml

Just as we thought this recent solar storm was going to fizzle out and give us nothing at mid-latitudes, we get a nice boost in strength. In addition, the Earth has crossed through what looks like a magnetic sector boundary, which has resulted in the solar wind magnetic field flipping mostly southward. This combination has boosted our chances of hitting storm levels. We are already experiencing active conditions. Thus ham radio might find auroral propagation pick up at night, especially on the 6 meter band! This short report gives you the details of this nice surprise gift!

The Sun has been teasing us for several days we anxiously wait for some fast solar wind to hit Earth. A huge snaking coronal hole has rotated into the Earth-strike zone, but we have only gotten a few puffs of fast wind while we skirt the edge of the fast flow. Aurora photographers are urged to stay ready, its still coming! Amateur radio operators are hanging on to marginal radio propagation for the next few days, but this will degrade to poor conditions soon with our spotless Sun. At least GPS is expected to enjoy conditions by the end of this week!

The Sun continues its slow descent into solar minimum with very low activity and shrinking coronal holes. This means a very quiet week for Space Weather. Amateur radio operators and emergency responders will have to deal with very low solar flux due to the absence of active regions on the Earth-facing Sun. Luckily, aurora photographers can look forward to another chance for a solar storm at the beginning of next week.

Although the Sun has been under-performing lately and things have gone quiet, we have another chance for some activity as a mini-solar storm has been launched in the Earth-strike zone and it will be followed by some fast solar wind. This means we might have a good chance for aurora over the holidays. Amateur radio and emergency responders also get the gift of a boosted solar flux thanks to region 2692, which should help radio propagation. GPS/GNSS operators are also in luck because 2692 is active, but not active enough to be a threat for radio blackouts. Learn the details of the coming storm, catch up on aurora photographs, and see what else the Sun has in store!

The Sun's face gets a lot more active this week with two coronal holes and two active regions rotating into Earth view. This means we get two more chances for some fast solar wind to cause us to reach solar storm conditions with some aurora while the Sun gives us a nice boost in the solar flux for radio propagation without any risk of big flares. The good news is just in time for the holidays for aurora photographers, amateur radio operators, and GPS operators. See details of the coming storms, how long the Sun has will keep up its brightness up, and what else is in store this week.

We are coming down from the fast wind that gave us a minor solar storm, which was weaker than expected so aurora didnt last as long as we hoped. But conditions will only stay quiet for a few days before we get hit with another small pocket of fast wind that could bump us back up to storm conditions and bring another chance for aurora. Amateur radio operators have been suffering through poor conditions due to no active regions in Earth view (except a tiny one, region 2690, that is emerging slowly now). Luckily, in about 4 days a larger, brighter region will return to Earth view, boosting the solar flux and radio propagation.

We await the arrival of a glancing blow from a mini-solar storm due to hit today. Although its not expected to be a strong impact, effects might be enhanced by some fast solar wind pushing it from behind. NOAA is expecting storm conditions, especially at high latitudes over the next day or so. Solar flux remains at the low end of marginal so while not optimal, HF radio propagation continues to limp along. At least we have no threat for any major flares and radio blackouts. Learn details of these solar conditions and the coming solar storm, catch up on aurora photos from recent activity, and see what else the Sun has in store this week.

The Sun's activity picks up this week with several pockets of fast wind expected to spark aurora at high latitudes. A slight chance for mid-latitude aurora also is expected later in the week. A new active region has also rotated into view this week and has given us a much needed boost in solar flux. Amateur radio operators and emergency responders should enjoy improved communications over HF radio for the next two weeks.

An ominous dark coronal hole rotates into the Earth-strike zone this week and sends us some fast solar wind just in time for Halloween. Aurora photographers might get a treat as early as tonight at high latitudes through the end of the week. Amateur radio fares less well this week but solar flux should rise again next week boosting radio propagation. See details of the coming storm, catch up on aurora pics from recent solar storming, and see what else the Sun has in store this week.

There have been few changes since the 2015 Earth-Orbiting Heliophysics Fleet. As of summer 2017, here's a tour of the NASA Heliophysics fleet from the near-Earth satellites out to the Voyagers beyond the heliopause. The satellite orbits are colour coded for their observing program: * Magenta: TIM (Thermosphere, Ionosphere, Mesosphere) observations * Yellow: solar observations and imagery * Cyan: Geospace and magnetosphere * Violet: Heliospheric observations

This brief forecast is to update emergency responders and amateur radio operators helping hurricane victims on the state of radio propagation for this week. (I will include a more extensive forecast along with aurora photographs in my upcoming video later this week.) Although the Sun is spotless now, an old active region will be rotating into Earth view this week providing a much needed boost to the solar flux levels. This region recently launched a solar storm on the backside of the Sun, nearly in view of Earth and the extra solar flux from this increased activity is already improving propagation conditions. Expect solar flux to bump up from into marginal levels over the next three days as this region rotates into view. Improved propagation on Earth's dayside should last over the next two weeks as long as this region remains visible in Earth view.

Scientists have documented a global aurora on Mars, believed to have been sparked by a large solar storm.

Although the solar active region responsible for all the X-flares just a few weeks ago has returned to Earth view, it is a shadow of its former self. Emergency responders to Hurricane Harvey, Irma, and Maria as well as to the earthquakes in Mexico recently can sigh in relief as there is no threat of radio blackouts from big flares on the day side of Earth this week. We do have a solar storm though hitting Earth now from some fast wind that should last over the next 24-48 hours. Aurora photographers are currently reporting beautiful aurora down into mid-latitudes and views like this should continue. Amateur radio operators will have some issues with the bands, especially on the night side during the storm and GPS/GNSS operators should exercise caution near the dawn-dusk terminators and anywhere near aurora.

NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the sun constantly, captured images of the events. Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth's atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground, however — when intense enough — they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS and communications signals travel. To see how this event may affect Earth, please visit NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center at http://spaceweather.gov, the U.S. government's official source for space weather forecasts, alerts, watches and warnings. X-class denotes the most intense flares, while the number provides more information about its strength. An X2 is twice as intense as an X1, an X3 is three times as intense, etc. The X9.3 flare was the largest flare so far in the current solar cycle, the approximately 11-year-cycle during which the sun’s activity waxes and wanes. The current solar cycle began in December 2008, and is now decreasing in intensity and heading toward solar minimum. This is a phase when such eruptions on the sun are increasingly rare, but history has shown that they can nonetheless be intense.

To answer so many questions from the community regarding the X9.3 solar flare, the coming solar storms, and what to expect from our Sun, I did an hour-long Periscope video. Here it is, without the distracting comments and hearts. When you see me looking to the bottom right side of the screen, I am reading questions that were coming live during the broadcast.

A sunspot (AR2673) that grew by a factor of ten from September 3-4, 2017, erupted with several m-class flares. One of the flares launched a coronal mass ejections (CME) in the direction of Earth.

Even though the eclipse is over the Sun remains busy. We have some fast wind expected to hit Earth in the next 24 hours that should raise us to storm levels. That will be compounded by a glancing blow from a solar storm going mainly west of Earth. Together these effects should bring us some decent aurora, possibly to mid-latitudes. We also have 3 active regions firing off C-class flares that are keeping the amateur radio bands noisy. GPS operators should also be aware of issues this week, especially near dawn and dusk. Learn the details of the coming storm and see what else the Sun has in store this week!

Earth has its share of monster storms, but even our most powerful hurricanes are a breeze compared to the great, planet-sized tempests of the gas giants.

The great vortices of the Jovian planets are true storms, analogous in many ways to Earth’s hurricanes. There are, of course, some differences. For example, these storms are as big as entire planets. The largest and oldest storm in the solar system is Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, stretching an incredible two to three times the diameter of the planet Earth. Meanwhile the fastest winds ever measured, clocking fifteen hundred miles per hour, once raged in Neptune’s Great Dark Spot. Saturn’s Polar Vortex is a 20,000-mile-wide monster shaped like a hexagon. Even plain-looking Uranus hides USA-sized hurricanes below its methane haze. There are many unsolved mysteries surrounding these epic storms. We may be close to finding some answers, following the Juno spacecraft’s recent flyby of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot.
