AveryHOST
A large, active region, AR4551, has developed the most complex magnetic classification there is, Beta Gamma Delta, which gives it the potential for strong flares.
AveryHOST
If it launches an Earth-directed eruption, aurora watchers in Tasmania, and Southern Victoria, and across Canada, the Northern US, and Scotland, will want to check the Bureau of Meteorology's Space Weather Services and NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center.
AveryHOST
It's a possibility, not a forecast.
AnnaHOST
And if all that sunspot talk tempts you to look, never look at the Sun directly, or through binoculars, a telescope, or a camera, without a certified ISO 12312-2 solar filter covering the front of the instrument.

Glenn HauserHOST
But surely that's not it.
Glenn HauserHOST
What could it be? The propagation outlook from SWPC issued October 12th.
Glenn HauserHOST
Geomagnetic field likely to reach G1 minor storm levels on 31 October and 1 November.
Glenn HauserHOST
Active levels likely on 22-23 October.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
Most uniquely, the National Weather Service is also responsible for forecasting the weather not only beyond the borders of the US, but beyond the borders of this world.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
The NWS's Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado, takes in data from the GOES satellites and terrestrial centers to report current and forecast future solar radiation and other space weather.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
This isn't just for the novelty, as high solar radiation activity, for example, can impact the human world.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
High-frequency radio gets disrupted during solar flares, so commercial aircraft can't fly routes over the poles where they rely on it to talk to air traffic control if the center has forecasted high levels of radiation, and that's just the very start of issues solar flares can cause.

this week's ARRL solar report.
Rich MosesonCORRESPONDENT
NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a G2 or moderate geomagnetic storm watch for today, October 9th.
Rich MosesonCORRESPONDENT
It says the effect should be minor, but the aurora may become visible over some northern states from New York to Idaho.
Rich MosesonCORRESPONDENT
Additional minor to moderate solar flares are expected through today, otherwise solar activity is expected to remain at low levels.

Mac WatsonHOST
Cowboy State Daily's Andrew Rossi reports that retired state climatologist Jan Curtis says, quote, you might want to get up and hope for the best.
Andrew RossiCORRESPONDENT
The latest report from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center is that multiple coronal mass ejections have been detected emerging from the sun.
Andrew RossiCORRESPONDENT
And they're going to reach between October 9th and October 11th, potentially.
Andrew RossiCORRESPONDENT
When these coronal mass ejections reach and interact with Earth's atmosphere, that's how you get auroras.
G4NJHHOST
The solar flux index climbed from 92 to 113 on Wednesday 7th October which is a help.
G4NJHHOST
The question is where does it go from here? Next week, the SWPC forecast the SFI will be in the range of 90 to 105.
G4NJHHOST
Geomagnetic conditions are forecast to be good with a maximum KP index of 2.
G4NJHHOST
As always, this is subject to no CMEs or coronal holes, so keep an eye on solarham.com for daily updates.
