↑ Real-time Space Weather Reports

By Doron Tal, 4X4XM

Real-time space weather reports are critical for protecting our technologically dependent society from solar events while also providing insight into the ever-changing space environment. Scientists and space agencies use advanced satellite and ground-based observatories to monitor these phenomena, providing up-to-the-minute information that helps mitigate potential risks to communication systems, navigation, and power grids on Earth.

The data collected from real-time space weather reports not only aids in protecting critical infrastructure but also enhances our understanding of fundamental astrophysical processes. Space weather reports may also help to understand and improve communication via skywaves.

The NOAA Space Weather Scales describe three event types: Radio Blackouts, Solar Radiation Storms, and Geomagnetic Storms, with numbered levels (0-5) for severity and possible effects.

    The RSG Scales describe three event types:
  1. R0-5  Radio Blackouts caused by solar X-Ray flares
  2. S0-5  Solar storms characterized by charged particles flux
  3. G0-5  Geomagnetic storms that affect HF propagation.
