Official Space Weather Advisory issued by NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center

Boulder, Colorado, USA

SPACE WEATHER ADVISORY BULLETIN #10- 2

**** FIRST SOLAR RADIATION STORM OF SOLAR CYCLE 24 ****

On Saturday, August 14, 2010 a small solar flare erupted on the Sun at

about 6am EDT.  Associated with this flare was a coronal mass ejection

(CME) that was partially directed towards the Earth.  Also associated

with this event was a S1 or minor solar radiation storm on the NOAA

Space Weather Scales http:  http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/NOAAscales/.  The

only impacts expected for a solar radiation storm of this magnitude are

minor impacts to HF radio communications in the polar regions. 

However, this is the first solar radiation storm of Solar Cycle 24 and

the first solar radiation storm since December of 2006. 

At this time, the solar radiation storm has subsided below threshold

levels.  However, oscillation around this threshold is possible for the

next several hours.  Subsequent significant activity is not expected

but there may be some level of geomagnetic storming on or around August

17th and 18th from the coronal mass ejection associated with this

event.  Initial observations of the coronal mass ejection direction and

velocity do not indicate a high likelihood of significant geomagnetic

storming but the Space Weather Prediction Center will continue to

monitor this event as it unfolds.

Data used to provide space weather services are contributed by NOAA,

USAF, NASA, NSF, USGS, the International Space Environment Services 

and other observatories, universities, and institutions. More 

information is available at SWPC's Web site http://swpc.noaa.gov
