UAF-GI Aurora Forecast

DANG!!!  First clouds in the sky in many days here.  Prolly too far south anyhow.  Thanks for the heads-up.

Yeah, sorry. The predicted auroral effect seems to be diminishing with each incremental update. On the plus side, global communication satellites are more likely to survive. I guess it’s a trade off. :^)

Space weather forecasts are still a work in progress. Just like regular weather forecasts for some of us :-(

Red flag warning! Power shutoffs coming! No, make that rain! No, wait it’s … “seasonal” weather.
