Space Weather

[erik.olden]

Greetings Windy,

I am interested in solar activity.

Space weather may be an exciting/important feature for us all in the future.

I.E., There are solar storms/flares that affect our GPS/Navigation/HAM equipment. (First Responders/911)
I.E., People who are active in Aurora photography.
I.E. Frequent flyers that are worried about radiation.

I hope you can generate some sort of Solar forecast with data provided by NASA and calculate something based on the speed of solar flares directed at Earth.

Check out Tamitha Skov youtube channel where I got the idea from.

Sincerely,

-Erik

+1 for this idea. I would love to be able to use solar data to try to spot the northern lights from my mid-latitude location.
