Solar Storm to Hit Earth Today Causing GPS and Radio Disruption
Solar Storm to Hit Earth Today Causing GPS and Radio Disruption
A coronal mass ejection will trigger a geomagnetic storm, which can impact technology and cause the Northern Lights to be seen further south.

1pm ET. So it already happened?
either it has not happened yet or it has already calmed down because QRZ.com shows everything as normal
Checking my image recordings the only thing I see as an ejection around 12 hours ago, so it would have to be a really fast burst to arrive today? Current Kp index is only at 2.3 which is pretty normal, and even NOAA's own forecast shows nothing happening. I'd say this event is a dud.
Yep, thats prob the case
authentic question: can you explain your logic?
I'm not quite sure what you are asking for. So, I would need more information to be able to answer properly.
I don't know what QRZ.com is, so I don't understand how the site being up lead to your conclusion. I'm not criticizing in anyway, but moreso just trying to understand because it sounds interesting to me. While I don't know the math, I love theoretical physics, and am wondering what I'm missing out on 🙂
Oh, qrz is a website for amateur radio operators and it has data from another site that has solar information I pulled up QRZ to take a look at that solar information at a glance. And the geomagnetic field was quiet with an S1 to S2 radio noise level, which is extremely low.
cool! thanks for explaining it 🙂
I cant even find local news report on it.
After some brief research apparantly these are super common, sometimes causd moderate disturbances and this one is minor but was predicted to maybe last a bit longer.
Its super interesting sfuff that i wish was more common in everyday news reporting but this article Up here is mere clickbait.
