A Dark Coronal Hole, A Total Solar Eclipse, and a Parting Shot | Space Weather News 02 April 2024
Learn more about Operational Space Weather Fundamentals:
Our Sun calms down a little bit in terms of big solar flares, but a chance for aurora still comes due to a big coronal hole rotating through the Earth-strike zone this week. Fast solar wind should arrive around April 4th and could bring aurora shows briefly to mid-latitudes. These shows will quiet down before the total solar eclipse on April 8, so amateur radio operators should enjoy quiet conditions for the numerous propagation parties during the eclipse. The big flare players are also rotating to the Sun’s farside and so radio noise, including radio blackouts on Earth’s dayside, should be at a minimum. Learn the details of the coming fast wind, discover some fun activities to be had during the total solar eclipse, and see what else our Sun has in store!
