Solar Storm News and Alerts
Current Solar Activity
The latest solar activity data shows that the sun is currently in a quiet phase. There have been no significant flares or coronal mass ejections (CMEs) in the past two hours.
3-Day Forecast of Magnetic Storms
The 3-day forecast of magnetic storms shows that there is a low risk of geomagnetic storms in the next three days.
K-Index and Planetary K-Index
The K-index and Planetary K-index are used to characterize the severity of geomagnetic storms. The K-index is a measure of the strength of the magnetic field at a particular location on Earth. The Planetary K-index is a measure of the average K-index over all of the Earth's observatories.
Live Imagery
Beneath that we have a collection of live imagery which can be used to pinpoint the location of a solar flare and see if there was a coronal mass ejection.
Geomagnetic Storm Classification
Geomagnetic storms are classified on a scale of G1 to G5, with G5 being the most severe. The ongoing geomagnetic storm is now classified as a G5 for the first time since 2003. This is a major storm, and it is likely to cause widespread disruptions to power grids, communications, and other infrastructure.
