SPACE WEATHER ADVISORY OUTLOOK #03- 23
2003 June 10 at 01:32 p.m. MDT (2003 June 10 1932 UTC)
**** SPACE WEATHER OUTLOOK ****
Summary For June 2-8
Space weather has reached moderate levels. A category G2 (moderate)
geomagnetic storm occurred on June 2nd and decreased to a category G1
(minor) storm on June 3rd. The geomagnetic storm was due to high speed
solar wind from a large coronal hole on the sun. Radio blackouts
reached the R2 (moderate) levels on June 2nd due to an energetic solar
flare that erupted at 6:22 A.M. MDT (0022 UTC). Radio blackouts at the
R1 (minor) level occurred June 6th and 8th. For a list of adverse
system effects related to space weather storms, please refer to the
NOAA Space Weather Scales.
Outlook For June 11-17
Space weather is expected to be at minor to moderate levels. A large
active sunspot region known to NOAA space weather forecasters as Region
380 is likely to produce minor (R1) to moderate (R2) radio blackouts
with a chance of a reaching strong levels (R3). The geomagnetic field
may reach minor (G1) levels early in the period due to the residual
effects of the large coronal hole.
