A. NOAA Geomagnetic Activity Observation and Forecast
The greatest observed 3 hr Kp over the past 24 hours was 4 (below NOAA
Scale levels).
The greatest expected 3 hr Kp for May 09-May 11 2014 is 4 (below NOAA
Scale levels).

21-00UT 2 3 2
Rationale: No G1 (Minor) or greater geomagnetic storms are expected. No
significant transient or recurrent solar wind features are forecast.
B. NOAA Solar Radiation Activity Observation and Forecast
Solar radiation, as observed by NOAA GOES-13 over the past 24 hours, was
below S-scale storm level thresholds.
Solar Radiation Storm Forecast for May 09-May 11 2014
May 09 May 10 May 11
S1 or greater 1% 1% 1%
Rationale: No S1 (Minor) or greater solar radiation storms are expected.
No significant active region activity favorable for radiation storm
production is forecast.
C. NOAA Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast
Radio blackouts reaching the R2 levels were observed over the past 24
hours. The largest was at May 08 2014 1007 UTC
Radio Blackout Forecast for May 09-May 11 2014
May 09 May 10 May 11
R1-R2 40% 40% 40%
R3 or greater 5% 5% 5%
Rationale: A chance for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts exists
for the next three days (09-11 May) due to potential flare activity
mainly from Region 2056 (N04E44).
