A G4 Solar Storm from an Unexpected Source | Space Weather Live Briefing 28 June 2024

[@ewinbarnett9411]

The sun is getting stronger and the magnetic field is drifting weaker. And yes, our magnetic field has no effect on solar activity. However it does control the magnitude of the effects on our ionosphere.

[@davidniemi4051]

Thank you for the stream Tamitha. When you present the first part is when you're more in professional mode. After presenting you are nice enough to switch to teaching mode which a lot of us, no doubt, appreciate.

[@John-wd5cb]

Solar weather lady is back! 😊

[@litttoe]

In red!

[@vvvvxxxx9999]

She is so awesome

[@CarolynMesser]

Did you know God stopped the sun for Moses when he was bringing the people out of Egypt and a cloud to protect them in the Bible if you read the Bible I pray you all believe in God for Jesus Christ is coming soon what eill you do when you could miss going to Heaven God bless his children in Jesus Christ is coming very soon Amen

[@1lightheaded]

You may believe that but I sure dont. How about the talking snake?

[@bellytripper-nh8ox]

Right, clown

[@GottaBeThere2736]

WHAT EXCITING TIMES! We're so grateful that you're giving us your time and expertise and huge effort with these videos, charts, graphics, etc. Bless you and THANK YOU.

[@TamithaSkov]

You are so welcome! Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me!

[@jmcdaid620]

Thank you so much for providing space weather briefings! I enjoy watching your live streams and learning more! Your explanations make it easier to understand.

So what does that mean for us earthlings

[@joehopfield]

Thank you Dr Skov! My grandmother was a physicist at APL in the 60s, researching tropospheric refraction/delay of signals from satellites (GPS precursor research). Around 1970 she showed me a teletype print-out of solar weather, trying to explain how it affected the troposphere and signal propagation. She would be delighted by what we've learned, horrified that we've allowed vital scientific infrastructure to age without replacement.

[@TamithaSkov]

Wow. Insightful thoughts here. Thanks for sharing them with me. We have come a long way, but much have also grown complacent in many ways. Space Weather needs better funding for sure.

[@Artofmanifesting]

You’re in red!!!

[@GREENxTARA]

when these storms happen i can hear the frequencies strong from the power lines. i have a power line right next to my window and i hear the frequencies going up and i usually start feeling sick, i’ve been learning to ground and it does help

[@forgottenamericana]

Tabitha rocking another space wx show!

[@Light4theWorldTV]

It's time to question what could be causing the Sun to strengthen? Physics has taught us that a force or mass must be acting upon an object to cause it to change. So what new mass is acting up on the Sun?

[@robertfinch4572]

Its in part, the magnetic field of the Earth that is weakening, the excursion of the magnetic poles(possible reversal) which allows greater effects by smaller flares, and CMEs from the sun. Been watching the filament. I however agree density of filament was high, and also is in part the effects from this increase. (Both in short.)

[@earthspirit8286]

We are an electric universe, everything is connected by this energy cord .Planet to planet ,person to person animal to animal, plants to trees and then connected to each of these energy changes forms but is forever

[@1lightheaded]

Wrong that is pseudoscientific rubbish .

[@Space30MINUTES]

This should be shared as much as possible because people in general, panic and spread rumours about such events.People should be Astronomy literate from young age, that would help them to navigate such events with ease (without panic). Thanks for such an informative episode!!

[@TamithaSkov]

Youre so welcome. Yes, panic and rampant fearmongering are several of the reasons why I started doing forecasting so long ago. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

[@Space30MINUTES]

@@TamithaSkov I believe your work brings a lot of meaning to the community. Please continue to pursue your passion and dedicate yourself to bringing useful forecasts to everyone!

[@VE6XTC]

I'll watch this on the weekend when I have more time. Meanwhile, I knew something big happened last night, June 26, when WWV was all fluttery on 5 mhz. I'll pop back in to report on what I thought of your livestream. It's always good so expect no complaints from me and my cat Delta.

[@TamithaSkov]

Could that have been auroral propagation? Not sure how well it occurs on 60 m though. Im used to hearing people talk about it closer to the VHF range.

Hello from Ohio

[@yvettedouglass4642]

This all makes sense to me. There is a poetry to all of this, feels like a mirror to humanity. Also, I started noticing the strength and quality of our Sun back in 2019 and ramping up in 2020. I remember pointing it out to a friend of mine and she didn’t see it…anyhow, it’s been getting stronger and stronger. I love your channel! Thank you Dr. Skov!

You Look Great, In The Color, Dr. Tamitha.🎉🎉🎉

[@crazyham]

You are Awesome 🙏🌞🙏 Thank You 🔭

[@Johan_tube]

Wonderful. I love your space weather forecast because you know how to explain the sun events to ordinary people. Also you add your effort and explaining the speeds, fields, latitudes, directions, times, and more and more data what I have never imagined. Then the formation, direction of the solar storm. I love the graphs charts with the data shows only a line but you explain in It in thousands words and that makes me understand the chart. Love it. It is all very important. Thank you doing this for us all. Sharing knowledge is very good. Learning is very important and you teach us. Thank you very much.

[@TamithaSkov]

You are so very welcome! We are all learning from one another here so you are in good company. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me!

[@ShawnDaGeek]

thank you

[@timothyhorrick2204]

NOAA was NOWHERE in the ball park.. they predicted a solar storm lvl1... we got a 4.... yeah... might want to re think some things...

[@TamithaSkov]

Yeah, well, we are just people, doing the best we can with very little instrumentation and observations to go by.

[@timothyhorrick2204]

@@TamithaSkov i agree, definately not as much equipment as one would like, and it doesnt help when the government defunds projects like chandra... but still... there was sufficient information provided by gos and sterio a and b, one must begin to question whether or not all of the variables are being factored in to the predictive softwear, and if they are being properly weighted, or even up to date... one thing is curtain, this should not have caught us off guard like it did

[@dannorsten6226]

Love your time n excellent interpretation ❤

[@mikeyB357]

Red!??

[@timothyhorrick2204]

.... if the earths magnetic field isnt weakening, and even if it were it would have no impact, how did we reach a KP8??

[@GrantGrove]

Very enlightening with understandable visual and vocal information.

[@lonekyeagle]

The band conditions have not been very good.

[@juliemoses1909]

[@egor81720]

What does it mean?

[@maryjones5710]

Yes we did get a good hit. I look at Nullscool earth and the SPACE option, which shows auroral activity.

[@marilynadams349]

Thank you. I am on an hour late

[@camiloarango6148]

thank you! appreciate the update and explanations

[@estherlwhittle7568]

Change is one thing that is always dependable, 😊 but seldom what is expected.

[@Phoenix-Risen416]

Hi, I’m in the UK 🇬🇧 and I’m relatively new to solar weather watching. I have the SDO still viewer, is there’s a link (I can use in the UK) to the live SDO viewer where I can watch live video of our sun? Thank you 🙏🏻🤍🙏🏻

[@TamithaSkov]

Try the SDO dashboard for starters. Here is the version I use: sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/dashboard/?d=0304;0211;0193;0131;0171;HMIBC

[@Phoenix-Risen416]

@@TamithaSkov oh that’s great, thank you so much 🙏🏻🤍🙏🏻

[@lcagee]

So when we see NOAA predictions, we should be aware the activity predicted to hit in 3 days may arrive in 2 days, and a predicted glancing blow may be much stronger or less strong than predicted. Will the new GOES 18 (GOES-U new GOES-E) give more solar data to improve forecasting? I guess it will take til November to be commissioned. 😊thanks!

[@lcagee]

I think you mentioned it at 40:00 (Virgil? Part of GOES-18? Is that the name of the coronograph?)

[@TamithaSkov]

Vigil is an ESA mission that will "park" a coronagraph (and other instruments) at the L5 Lagrangian point. This will give us about 4 days advance warning of big active regions that could spell trouble for us. It will also give us a "side" view of Earth-directed solar storms so that we can do a better job at forecasting them. Sadly, launch for this spacecraft has been pushed out to 2030.

[@anyonecansee4601]

This is not your daddy's sun

[@pmj50]

Always so informative, thank you for your commitment and sharing your knowledge❤

[@ellenal.7422]

I turned my external speaker up high, and slowed the video's playback speed to 75%, but it's still difficult to understand what our commentator is saying when her voice 'trails off' and what sounds like mumbling or some words are being 'muttered' when she talks. This is my first time here, listening to this podcast. I do appreciate her candor, excitement and personality she is bringing to the podcast. I think keywords should be emphasized and syllables more clearly annunciated. Thank you!

[@ytSuns26]

No kidding the hard of hearing can’t go higher on the volume. I think you tubes videos ought to be very loud at mid volume . Give everyone a chance to hear.

[@gammondog]

My audiologist told me that hearing loss in the upper range can make understanding women’s voices more difficult. I hope it’s just your speaker. Modern hearing aids can help with this high frequency loss as we age.

[@cynthiaevans3873]

Yes, can here you.

[@dadw7og116]

Jen Gannon is the reason we have magnetometers on the ground???

[@TamithaSkov]

She's not the only one, but she's one of them! Check out the MagStar magnetometer array. She had just gotten an NSF grant to help develop, expand, and archive data from this array in the USA.

[@sjpp71]

Red shirt! Battle stations, battle stations... this is NOT a drill

[@ClipSnipSurfing]

Can you do a podcast discussion with Ben Davidson from Suspicious Observers? You both have great information yet differ on opinions of how and why these are creating such an impact. Thank you for the great discussions and content!!

[@onebeingeverybody]

That wouldn't go real good for Ben if it happened. Even with how politely Dr. Skov would surely engage with him.

[@markmcarthy596]

Stephan Burns is more level headed than Ben. Kudos to all observers though-valuable information from all 3

[@onebeingeverybody]

I absolutely appreciate Ben's work and have watched his videos for a looooong time. Just to be clear.

[@birgitschack797]

I agree, Stefan Burns has great videos and continous updates. His page is growing fast! Talks about the scientific and spiritual factors

[@Wesmancan]

She would t talk to Ben. He’s attitude sucks balls he’s an arrogant ass and a salty dog to.

Watching a show about snow/ I in hot Texas

[@VE6XTC]

I watched this briefing last night and I thoroughly enjoyed it. As for cycle 19, it started from April of 1954 to November of 1968. So I was a shortwave listener during the tale end of the cycle. I became a CB enthusiast in cycle 20 and a ham in cycle 21. Cycles 23 and 24 were disappointing but this cycle looks to be an exciting one. It might not rival or beat cycle 19 but it's already an improvement over the past two solar cycles. Thanks for also explaining stealth CMEs. What you taught shows that solar flairs aren't the sole source of CMEs. I'm grateful for your explanation which I'll pass on to others when they ask what happened.

[@TamithaSkov]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me. Yes, CMEs and flares often happen together, but they dont have to! Its always a mistake to conflate the two.

[@kathypaaaina3953]

Aloha hugs 🤗 The Red Beautiful Blouse scary

[@charlenemiale1819]

The Sun is loaded with snake filaments -- expressing filament eruptions -- What is of concern is the speed radioactive winds travel towards Earth's surface; how many are occurring? How do these radioactive winds affect the Van Allen Belts and their consequence to plate tectonic plasticity? And, Earth keeping traditional know orbit in its gravitational field? Could we loose tilt???

[@cJsmith2373]

When is the next storm going to hit? I’m affected by them due to a 9mm bullet lodged in my frontal lobe….. ughh they drain me & make me exhausted the entire duration of the storms. I can’t have MRI’s either. Geo magnetic storms are bad for me

[@SusanKing-v3k]

Love watching your reports , though You Tube marked this as new ,I got 4 days late . Is it just me ! ❤

[@alarkorgemagi3627]

Earth magnetic field is weakening. That’s why forecasts always fall short.

[@ytSuns26]

Oh it’s my ears , and millions of others . Most channels are just fine m a surprising number really are difficult to understand .

[@kennethcapen3184]

I really did not see anything in those dark areas happening. I believe the brighter areas are the dangerous ones, I don't know maybe i'm wrong😂

[@johnfeyen1906]

I think she is behind on the latest data on the magnetic field. What like to see her do a report on that data. Around 70-75%?

[@crystalokay2245]

Its sort of an inside joke. Apparently, Ive worn red in the past when there were storms coming, which led some observant folk in this community to mention it as if I did it intentionally. I did not. But since then, I no longer wear a red shirt unless there is an Earth-directed storm. Its pretty funny, actually. I am now quite careful to wear the proper color blouse to each briefing!
