Big Flare Players Enter as a Solar Storm Heads for Earth | Space Weather Spotlight 18 November 2023

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University:
www.millersville.edu/swen
This week our Sun launches another Earth-directed solar storm, which is predicted to arrive either late on the 19th or early on the 20th. Although the storm is weaker than those from earlier this month, it is strong enough to possibly bump us to storm conditions for a short while, bringing aurora down to mid-latitudes. It will be followed by some short pockets of fast solar wind so we could be in for a bumpy ride through mid-next week. Radio blackout risk remains low, ensuring good propagation conditions for amateur radio operators, but the risk for big flares will start rising this week due to several big -flare players on the farside rotating into earth view. GPS reception should remain in the good range on Earth's dayside over the next few days, with conditions possibly worsening as we move into early next week. However, on earth's nightside, minor issues will likely exist anywhere near aurora during the solar storm. Learn the details of the coming solar storm, see the new regions about to rotate into Earth view and find out what else our Sun has in store.

[@wendy-gailstorbeck6961]

How would I ever have learned anything without having found you? So good to catch this today

[@steveplenty8365]

A true lady of space weather thank you ❤❤❤

[@mandireanne]

Feb 17 2023 I flew in a plane from Hawaii to mainland- hours after the class x2.2 solar flare Got extremely unwell midflight and for days following. Had to return to Hawaii the day the CME hit. Unwell for weeks. Travel your flights safely y’all (Those with gut issues are more susceptible to acute radiation poisoning…I’m living proof with celiac)

[@colindeer9657]

Dr. Skov. I am amazed at how much work you must put in to every presentation. Thank you so very much. Such great detail. Cheers.

[@tcort]

Thank you so much for making this type of content.

Thank you Dr. T😎

[@jameswilliamson288]

much luv 2 u my solar sister

[@willhazyblue]

Thank you for this most important info I have a implanted pacemaker Defribulator and its affected by magnetic fields it can make me feel sluggish or like dragged down or perky and full of strength, depending on the magnetic field at any time.❤

[@larrysernyk6154]

Solar maximum is great!! Thanks Dr Skov.

[@michelespier5879]

Very informative; thank you.

[@harborgirl8877]

Wow, excellent channel!

[@VE6XTC]

I'm glad you keep making these forecasts, Tamitha. You have a loyal audience which keeps growing. 73, VE6XTC.

[@reggiereg7105]

Love the show ❤

[@Rod_2E0RLR]

Thankyou Tamitha.. taking an enforced break .. I think solar maximum will be March /April 2025.. ❤ 😅

[@mandireanne]

I’m tryin to book a flight from Hawaii to Oregon…but I’m waiting for this solar storm to die off - hoping for a quiet period so I can race to see my mama bein sent home for hospice

[@HollyLewallen-Smith]

Gotta Love Dr. Tamitha Skov, The Space Weather Woman!❤️🌎🌏🌍🌞. Thanks for the Space Weather update Tamitha. Love ❤. Shared ❤. Saved on KZbin ❤️.

[@googletropcurieux8670]

It’s not gonna be the big one😢

[@texasflashcoveinstaller4317]

Put your monitor your watching for orientation behind and slightly above your broadcasting camera so it appears you are always looking at your audience

[@homeplanet365]

From Dr. Skov's report, Solar Weather should not have been an unexpected factor in the loss of signal with the Space X Starship Rocket Test as the Booster Detached and they had to do a Self Destruct on it 8 minutes in. Still good progress though. That rocket is so big it could carry up the weight of the ISS in 4 trips.

[@bfraftr]

First time to see your video and signed up for it. I like your reporting style, it makes it easier for most people to understand. Will you be incorporating earthquakes around the world during the solar flares in the future? Thank you very much for your public service. His bless you snd everyone watching you.😃🥰🙏👍

[@Patrick_Ross]

There is no connection between space weather and earthquakes.

[@XRandonymnityX]

What happened to all the aurora photos seen from all the regions? I looked forward to those lol

[@tompsheridantsheridant7354]

THEY GOT DELETED, OR, MORE LIKELY **THERE ARE NO AURORA**, ALL "IMAGES" ARE CGI!!

[@Barracuda48082]

So, as far as we know, de energized, battery isolated electronics are emp, solar wave safe..right?

[@raycar1165]

Much ❤ Love 🌎🌏🌍☯️⚡️

[@mandireanne]

I’m confused as to which days are safest to fly from Hawaii to Washington state. Curious if I fly red eye, I’ll be on side not facing the sun. Is that a better option too? I’m traveling with two kids.

[@zoolkhan]

Thank you for a promising DX weather outlook of the coming week. 88 from europe

[@raylaux8295]

DX is all you care about. You won’t have a radio when that earth facing CME hits in a few months Smoke signals soon, snowflake

[@PoptartBandit9956]

She said it would happen today but it didn’t

[@kathyannknight9661]

How did you get the beautiful purple 💜 sun I love purple 💜 Watch you every time youron

[@BryanStephens-mf9ld]

Happening now250 central and on

[@firstclasspropertiesgroup8124]

Ive noticed that when we get solar flares hitting earth, the weather goes off the charts too.

[@firstclasspropertiesgroup8124]

As I noted.. today is December 10 we have a storm that stands from Canada to Mexico. Look at the radar! These solar flares are affecting our weather!

[@texasflashcoveinstaller4317]

[@rodrod5380]

Thank you. How I wish someone could do this kind of updates on the Pacific rim area particularly the Southeast Asia including Guam, PNG, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia and my country, the Philippines. I'm sure once this is made, many of us, Filipino would subscribe and support this channel. Recently, we had a magnitude 7.2 earthquake but noone seems to know why. Was a coronal hole facing our area at that time? I really want to know?

[@Patrick_Ross]

There is no connection between space weather and earthquakes.

[@rodrod5380]

Check your data okay.@@Patrick_Ross

[@rodrod5380]

Some astrophysicists believe that when a coronal hole appear and facing Earth, it disturbs the inner core of our planet causing earthquakes and waking up volcanoes and even creating new ones. Check it again. There must be a correlation

[@wolventiger]

Someone's been watching my X (tweets) the September 14, 2023 I got video of strange clouds

[@Fancy_Blotworth]

Lol, I cant wait for the day where celestial weather forecasts become mainstream

[@nerdy-zeig7774]

just wrap your phones in a faraday cage or a simple aluminum foil... and it will be safe from solarstorm emp if that keeps you up during night

[@tompsheridantsheridant7354]

Replying to @nerdy-zeig7774: AND THE **ASSCLOUWN OF THE UNIVERSE AWARD** GOES TO **YOU**!!

[@terryderush2657]

If you believe this. I've got some oceanfront properties in Arizona.

[@reedreamer9518]

Hahah - all weather reports should include space weather. But what the hell is wrong with 10 meters? Cheers!

[@raylaux8295]

Now your starting to spread factual information, took you long enough

[@litezout5682]

Don’t worry guys. It’s fake

[@kdrichardson5261]

You rock Dr skov.

[@TheRealFreznoBob]

A Solar "storm" has only one thing in common with an earthly storm and that is the flow of charge. There is no wind coming at us, nor clouds just a stream of positively charged ions flowing out from the sun, a current, an electric current. A stream of ions, positive or negative is a flow of current.
