| 2024-12-21 10:45 AM | SUMMARY: 10cm Radio Burst Begin Time: 2024 Dec 21 0037 UTC Maximum Time: 2024 Dec 21 0038 UTC End Time: 2024 Dec 21 0038 UTC Duration: 1 minutes Peak Flux: 229 sfu Latest Penticton Noon Flux: 184 sfu Description: A 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the 10cm wavelength was double or greater than the initial 10cm radio background. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications. |

| Dec 21 | Dec 22 | Dec 23 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 00-03UT | 3.00 | 1.67 | 2.33 |
| 03-06UT | 2.00 | 1.33 | 2.67 |
| 06-09UT | 3.00 | 1.33 | 2.00 |
| 09-12UT | 2.00 | 1.33 | 2.00 |
| 12-15UT | 1.67 | 1.33 | 1.00 |
| 15-18UT | 1.00 | 1.67 | 2.00 |
| 18-21UT | 1.00 | 1.33 | 2.00 |
| 21-00UT | 2.33 | 1.67 | 2.67 |
Rationale: No G1 (Minor) or greater geomagnetic storms are expected. No significant transient or recurrent solar wind features are forecast.
Solar Radiation Activity Observation and Forecast
Solar radiation, as observed by NOAA GOES-18 over the past 24 hours, was below S-scale storm level thresholds.
| Dec 21 | Dec 22 | Dec 23 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| S1 or greater | 5% | 5% | 5% |
Rationale: No S1 (Minor) or greater solar radiation storms are expected. No significant active region activity favorable for radiation storm production is forecast.
Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast
Radio blackouts reaching the R1 levels were observed over the past 24 hours. The largest was at Dec 20 2024 1118 UTC.
| Dec 21 | Dec 22 | Dec 23 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| R1-R2 | 65% | 60% | 60% |
| R3 or greater | 10% | 10% | 10% |
Rationale: R1 (Minor) or greater radio blackouts are likely on 21-23 Dec.

The sun is constantly monitored for sun spots and coronal mass ejections. EIT (Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope) images the solar atmosphere at several wavelengths, and therefore, shows solar material at different temperatures. In the images taken at 304 Angstrom the bright material is at 60,000 to 80,000 degrees Kelvin. In those taken at 171 Angstrom, at 1 million degrees. 195 Angstrom images correspond to about 1.5 million Kelvin, 284 Angstrom to 2 million degrees. The hotter the temperature, the higher you look in the solar atmosphere.

Instruments on board the NOAA Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite (POES) continually monitor the power flux carried by the protons and electrons that produce aurora in the atmosphere. SWPC has developed a technique that uses the power flux observations obtained during a single pass of the satellite over a polar region (which takes about 25 minutes) to estimate the total power deposited in an entire polar region by these auroral particles. The power input estimate is converted to an auroral activity index that ranges from 1 to 10.

Radio Communications Impact
D REGION ABSORPTION PREDICTIONS (D-RAP) and VHF and HF Band Conditions
The D-Region Absorption Product addresses the operational impact of the solar X-ray flux and SEP events on HF radio communication.
Long-range communications using high frequency (HF) radio waves (3 - 30 MHz) depend on reflection of the signals in the ionosphere. Radio waves are
typically reflected near the peak of the F2 layer (~300 km altitude), but along the path to the F2 peak and back the radio wave signal suffers attenuation
due to absorption by the intervening ionosphere. The D-Region Absorption Prediction model is used as guidance to understand the HF radio degradation
and blackouts this can cause.

This is Pimoh Daimaoh's Personal Weather station, all data collected is based according to the initial readings from his sensors within the location in Baltazar St. Barangay #60 Caloocan City Philippines. Any comparisons that beyond from other weather sensor(s) readings may vary to its accuracy in different areas specially to compare this information to other weather agencies and amateurs may be differ from their initial records but very close as much as possible recordings. However, this may as accurate report as possible which may help this site as their another DATA information reference in the philippines so take note that never base important decisions that could result in harm to people or property on this weather information, this is just for additional data references.
