A New Chance for Storming: Solar Storm Forecast 05-17-2018
**Note** Ads are on this video due to the use of a snippet of the theme to '2001 Space Odyssey' found in the special ending. I am not monetizing this video, You Tube is.
Space Weather finally calms down just in time for a new coronal hole to cause another solar storm and bring aurora, possibly down to mid-latitudes. We are already beginning to see the early effects from this latest burst of fast solar wind to hit Earth. Although not nearly as intense as the last storm we had, it could bring us to active conditions over the next several days. We also have a new bright region entering Earth-view this week that is helping boost solar flux and keep radio propagation at marginal conditions over the next several days. As usual with a spotless Sun, GPS conditions are good on Earth's dayside this week, with only issues near aurora on the night side. Learn details of this coming solar storm, what emergency responders have to look forward to, and what else the Sun has in store. Also catch a surprise ending, specially made for a cast member on TWiT-TV's Ham Nation.

None of this would be possible without the hard work and dedication of those who have provided all of this data for public use.
Images c/o NASA/ESA/CSA (most notably the superb SDO, SOHO, ACE, STEREO, CCMC, JPL & DSN teams, amazing professionals, hobbyists, institutions, organizations, agencies and amateurs such as those at the USAF/HAARP, NICT, NOAA, USGS, Environment Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Intellicast, Catatania, rice.edu, wisc.edu, sonoma.edu ucalgary.ca, rssi.ru, ohio-state.edu, solen.info, and more. Thanks for making Space Weather part of our every day dialogue.
