HOW IS SPACE WEATHER NOW?
CURRENT CONDITIONS:
🟢 Solar Wind: 356.0 km/s (1 h avg)FORECAST FOR TODAY:
🟢 Radio Blackout: R0
- No effects🟡 Solar Radiation Storm: S1
- The HF radio signal in polar regions is meh🟢 Geomagnetic Storm: G0

The proton storm level is reducing. The 100MeV protons are now below S1 level.
The electron flux is also reducing.

Proton storm update: High energy 100MeV protons reached the S1 warning levels at 15h45 UT. Levels are slowly falling but low energy 10MeV protons remains high.
Electron flux also peaked at the same time and is now reducing slowly in level.
People who are super-sensitive to proton radiation storms are currently having a bad time.
HF propagation is degraded in polar regions., due to polar cap absorption.

In case anybody needs something else to worry over...
"Space weather poses an important but under-quantified threat to society. While severe geomagnetic storms are recognized as potential global catastrophes, their socio-economic impacts remain poorly quantified. We present a novel physics-engineering-economic framework that links geophysical drivers to power grid geoelectric fields, transformer vulnerability, and macroeconomic consequences. Using the United States as an example, we estimate daily economic losses for a 250-year geomagnetic storm from transformer thermal heating of 1.81 billion USD (95 percent confidence interval: 1.65 to 1.96 billion USD), disrupting power for approximately 5.1 million people and 135,000 businesses. These estimates are conservative lower bounds, reflecting only transformer thermal heating effects and excluding voltage collapse, cascading failures, and restoration costs. The true societal risk could be substantially higher. Nonetheless, this contribution provides the first nationwide end-to-end coupling from space physics to potential macroeconomic loss, with quantified uncertainties. Our results demonstrate that coupled socio-economic modeling of space weather is feasible and essential, and the framework is scalable and transferable, offering a template for assessing space weather risk to critical infrastructure in other countries."

Starting on 9/4/26, a major volcanic eruption hit Krakatoa Volcano in Indonesia, sending an ash plume at least 15 km above sea level into the stratosphere. If this volcanic eruption scales up to be even bigger, Indonesia and even the world could be in some big trouble.
