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 12-May 14 2014 is 4 (below NOAA
Scale levels).

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 12-May 14 2014
May 12 May 13 May 14
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
No radio blackouts were observed over the past 24 hours.
Radio Blackout Forecast for May 12-May 14 2014
May 12 May 13 May 14
R1-R2 50% 50% 50%
R3 or greater 10% 10% 10%
Rationale: A chance for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts exists
throughout the period due to potential flare activity from Regions 2055
(N12W09), 2056 (N05E03), 2058 (S11E30) and 2060 (S16E37).
