ALERT: Geomagnetic K-index of 6 -- Threshold Reached: 2012 Oct 010148 UTC
Space Weather Message Code: ALTK06
Serial Number: 293 Issue Time: 2012 Oct 01 0151 UTC ALERT: Geomagnetic K-index of 6 Threshold Reached: 2012 Oct 01 0148 UTC Synoptic Period: 0000-0300 UTC Active Warning: Yes NOAA Scale: G2 - Moderate NOAA Space Weather Scale descriptions can be found at www.swpc.noaa.gov/NOAAscales Potential Impacts: Area of impact primarily poleward of 55 degrees Geomagnetic Latitude. Induced Currents - Power grid fluctuations can occur. High-latitude power systems may experience voltage alarms. Spacecraft - Satellite orientation irregularities may occur; increased drag on low Earth-orbit satellites is possible. Radio - HF (high frequency) radio propagation can fade at higher latitudes. Aurora - Aurora may be seen as low as New York to Wisconsin to Washington state. |
