Excellent report Dr. Skov. Thank you. Appreciate the details for radio operators, gps users. And loved the mention that this is a great time to power down our electric consumption and relieve our grid load. We can all help a bit 😊
Hi, I am a ham radio op. and I value your info. Radio Propagation has been so disturbed lately sometimes for the better and sometimes for worst. Thank you for your videos.
@@tandt7694 the ten meter band is open . I am hearing DX stations from south America and Canada.. lower bands are less active and I have not heard DX .

I used to have a license when I was in Middle School but the last two times I've tried to renew my license cuz they expired many years ago I failed the tests I can't believe how much I forgot And I'll put in much more serious attempt in studying. but certain things have changed.
These days I don't leave the house, I go to the market when there are no people, simply not seeing other people makes my life easier, THE TRUTH I chose to admit this information from the DOC, Casi Loca Aurora,
I wish we all had the ability to decrease nighttime light pollution. It was magnificent at night when we lost power. I’m grateful to have ac back as I live in south GA but I miss that beautiful night sky we had.
I couldn’t sleep, woke up at 4am here in the coastal mountains N/W of Monterey Bay. We are blessed to have super dark skies. Orion’s Belt is so bright in the eastern sky! You can’t see your hand in front of your face on moonless nights. ⛰🌲🇺🇸🙏

I’ve never seen the whole northern hemisphere glowing with aurora borealis from Kansas before! It’s wild and I got some amazing photos. Could see it with naked eye!! Incredible!!! What a show!
Did you say "samitched"? LOL 😆 I always look forward to your reports because they are full of great data and insights! Thanks for taking the time to keep us "Hams" and other enthusiasts well informed of the current space weather! My only complaint is that your reporting isn't live 24/7. I hate waiting for you to post. 😉😊
Seems CME from x7 seperated before hitting earth. No clue. We're getting some space weather right now though not sure if it amounts to what we aren't accounting for.
We were lucky to observe the recent auroral event in the mid west and had a lot of pictures. That was a G4. We may have another G4 and a great chance to see auroras again! As we learned, our energy grid is robust and seems ready for much higher level flares/CMEs so let us all relax and enjoy the show that may appear from this current storm this time!
Thank you so much Dr Skov... These storms can cause significant Neuro issues for me post brain injury and your thorough analysis is helping me find out which parts may be contributing. I love the chance of an Aurora but comes at a big price some storms.
The Sun is in busy mode! My amateur radios are going to be more noisy than the inside of a school bus on the last day of term! 🤣 Thanks for the forecast!
Dr. Skov - RE: The 3842 CME burst 4 days ago - By the time this CME hit us here on Earth, I had been following what 'seems to be' a direct correlation to effects: We had big CME blast[s] a week or two back before Helene hurricane hit, and... Now - just 2 days [10-05-2024 Saturday] after this 3842 X-9 blast shrowding our Earth was electromagnetically affecting us - Milton started building like no Hurricane they have ever seen building in the Gulf, now looking like it is headed toward the Tampa, FL area that could hit a 5 level hurricane before the eye hits the shore - most likely with as bad or worse damages from Milton. My opinion: There is a direct correlation that 'mad scientists' should be on - as this is most likely science verifying a direct relation between Earth storms, volcanoes, earthquakes, etc. - all connected with pressures from the horrifically immense electromagnetic plasma Sun blasts. Next on the list: We are noticing the biggest comet in ages in sight, and these obviously also affect both wake residue from the comet tail fallout mixing with plasma vital for our life that is its own coronavirus [invisible contamination of Earth-directed plasma - that obviously affects us] as large comets' tails mixing with the CME blasts - are known to have correlations between tension, contaminated plasma, war break-outs, +, of course, weather effects from these necessary CME blasts that also help us survive - part of the Cosmic Dance we receive... So party on, and be grateful we are still alive! We also have observed an increased number of Comets/asteroids raining on our Solar System - that could be affected by the Explosion of Andromeda's Betelgeuse - picked up hundreds of light years 'after the fact' yet obviously affecting atmospheric pressures before we can even see it, also my opinion yet worth looking at closely. Exacerbating this collision between Andromeda and our Milky Way Galaxy will obviously mean dire consequences to our safety... Yet, it is impossible to put a date when we reach a point of no return.
15:25 - Curious. Storms like this tend to ADD Current to the Grid, or so I've understood it. How would using less be better for the grid? Could You explain this a bit more in detail?
The "green energy" given to the grid during big storms through GICs is not what the transformers were designed to handle. It sets up an unwanted harmonic in the current and shifts the phase between the alternating voltage and current waves. This causes more reactive power to be used (meaning the grid is forced to store this energy through reactive power). But the more reactive power that is used, the less the grid can deliver true power through its distribution lines. Dialing down true power usage frees up more reactive power capacity for the grids to handle bigger GICs. Our grids both store and deliver energy, but it's a give and take kind of mechanism because there is only a finite amount of absolute power a grid can handle. I have a mini-course in which I discuss this "power triangle." See my "E" course series.
Dear Dr. Skov, thank you for all your wisdom and teaching! But I have a question for you: why you left @stefanburns on read! This question come on his channel!😉warm regards!🌞
Okay seemingly our current world evolving towards a totally electric civilization, with EV's everywhere as well the PV smart highways with subdivision solar microgrids/solar farms popping up everywhere, - shouldn't we be very concerned with building resilience into these futuristic systems against such X-Flare events, not to mention other indirect weather repercussions ? What would these protective technologies even look like ? Current research and actions * IE - Upgrading grid infrastructure with more robust transformers, installing Geomagnetically Induced Current (GIC) blocking devices, implementing advanced monitoring systems to detect early warning signs of solar storms, developing rapid response protocols, and coordinating with space weather forecasters to proactively adjust grid operations during solar events; essentially focusing on preventative measures, early detection, and mitigation techniques to minimize potential damage from powerful solar flares. Amazing we may soon be using the sun to power our world while at the same time the sun could end it, If, If we don't get this thing right.. BTW -Thanks Tamitha, you are truly the best !
Back in 2014 I was taking a ton of online physics courses for personal growth. The field that ignited my passion was heliophysics and space weather. At that time, distance-learning wasn't even a really a thing, but Millersville was the one place I wanted to go. I've probably studied a lot of the course material on my own, and through friendships with other Millersville SWEN grads, but I'd still LOVE to do the course. Am I right that these are now online courses?
Really hoping to see something this time here in Ohio. Might keep the family up late to watch. Thank you as always Dr Skov for everything you and your team does. ❤❤❤

Bravo! :)
Thank you for your updates, Dr.tamithla. All we can do is keep riding these 🌊 …and pray 💫
What we love about you, Dr., is your calm, level-headed sound effects . Storms come and go, but we all spin together ❤️
But not all can biosynthesis radiation.❤ Study genetics...what is atrophy? 😊
Excellent report, Tamitha,. Thank you for keeping us informed!
Thank you so much for all your amazing videos! You show us a world that few people are aware of!
Great job with superb graphics. A much more impressive cycle peak than the last one - thanks Doc -

about 90% of solar storms this year have been stronger than forecast so i wouldnt be surprised if we hit g5 for a short period of time
You’re awesome! Thanks so much for the time and effort you put into your channel. Love watching it.
I sent the information to my EMS friends at the Oregon Communication Center with the full report. Thank you.
Thank u for the update Dr Skov. ❤ the red color coded shirt.
Watching your updates are so relaxing! My favorite solar weather UA-cam channel
Thank you for sharing, Dr. Skov. :)
I’ve been waiting for this one! Thanks for the explanation for us.
My favorite solar storm forecaster Tamitha, the space weather woman nails it again! Thank you😎
Got a recommend for this vid. I'm hooked. This is amazing.
Excellent. Welcome to the community! You will find we are a positive and encouraging group with no fear mongering or sensationalism.
Thank you. Super report. Why is it I feel less stressed watching your channel report than Suspicious Observers?
Thanks for asking that question. The answer is because I dont fear monger or treat space weather in a sensational way. I prefer to keep it real.
These days I don't leave the house, I go to the market when there are no people, simply not seeing other people makes my life easier, THE TRUTH I chose to admit this information from the DOC, Casi Loca Aurora,
Thank you again for another great update, Doctor. 73s, and God bless.
Aloha hugs awesome Report in your Red Warning Alert Shirt.
Thank you, Dr. T. You look lovely in red. I actually am enjoying all this plasma release from these CMEs. I find it energizing and healing!

134 is my checkin number. I Knew you'd post a video. Thank you Dr.TAMITHA SKOV.
I have a feeling this solar storm is going to be epic.
Haven't heard anything about the X7 storm impacting Earth yet, it must be way slower than everybody is predicting.
Me neither. My ear got muffly randomly and that seems like it happens when solar energy is coming. But nothing when I checked either
Seems CME from x7 seperated before hitting earth. No clue. We're getting some space weather right now though not sure if it amounts to what we aren't accounting for.
bit late to the party cos of work commitments but well worth the wait, thank you Tamitha. Lots of useful information ❤✨
Sounds like the voice for a guided meditation
Extremely interesting. I really love your reports. This is good evening from Illinois.
Thank you Dr. Skov! Your channel is the BEST!
Uh oh red shirt 😳
Thanks Dr. Skov
The red shirts never make it, they’re expendable!
I like your videos you tell people the truth instead of exaggerating like some people and acting like it's the end of the world.
Thank you for your report. God bless you and keep you safe. I'm in NW Az but I have family in Tennessee and affected areas from Helene.
It would take X30-X40 for a Carrington like event. Probably not gonna happen for another few months
Thanks for the updates
Excellent video. I've been trying to photograph the aurora the past few night from Colorado without success. Maybe this weekend.
Love your work ❤
Thank you for keeping us well informed
Do you think we now have the ability to see a potential Clarington level event developing - before it happens?
I love this! It's like the news! Subscribed!
Fantastic job thanks for news
Thank you for the great report. Much appreciated.
Got to get the facts from Tamitha
Thank you and bless you
So, not a great time to be resident on the ISS. Hope they will fare well in this storm.
We were lucky to observe the recent auroral event in the mid west and had a lot of pictures.
That was a G4.
We may have another G4 and a great chance to see auroras again!
As we learned, our energy grid is robust and seems ready for much higher level flares/CMEs so let us all relax and enjoy the show that may appear from this current storm this time!
Thank you God bless ❤
The stars were so bright a few nights ago... The big Dipper was really lit up
I love your voice.

Bad headaches and weird dizzyness for me. Are you doing anything for it? I dont know where to start
Must be pretty cozy in that ISS "safe room".
Very enjoyable to listen to.
The Sun is in busy mode! My amateur radios are going to be more noisy than the inside of a school bus on the last day of term! 🤣 Thanks for the forecast!

Thank you tamitha , wildy weather
If the X9 was a long duration flare, I'd actually be quite concerned. It's getting towards the scarey level.
Not by a long shot, August 1972, X20 causes sea mines to explode, radio blackouts and minor power grid problems... humanity survived.
@@germanjohn5626we need and X50 and then some. The ☀️ is showing signs that it is capable of doing that.
@germanjohn5626 Earths magnetic shield is not at the same strength as then. Hence the event in spring this year. Its not a like for like comparison.
@@orangeedo good reasoning. Great insights.
@@orangeedo plus the X7 will weaken it before the X9 arrives

With the Earths Magnetic shield in decline this is quite concerning. Means more UV and a greater chance of a Carrington Event.
