Highest Storm Level Predicted by Day
Mar 17: None (Below G1) Mar 18: None (Below G1) Mar 19: G2 (Moderate)
THIS SUPERSEDES ANY/ALL PRIOR WATCHES IN EFFECT
Comment: G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storming is likely on 19 Mar with the arrival of a CME that left the Sun on 16 Mar. This is a reissue of the previous watch to correct an internal system error.
Induced Currents - Power grid fluctuations can occur. High-latitude power systems may experience voltage alarms.
Spacecraft - Satellite orientation irregularities may occur; increased drag on low Earth-orbit satellites is possible.
Radio - HF (high frequency) radio propagation can fade at higher latitudes.
Aurora - Aurora may be seen as low as New York to Wisconsin to Washington state.

SUMMARY: 10cm Radio Burst
Begin Time: 2026-03-16 12:09 UTC
Maximum Time: 2026-03-16 12:13 UTC
End Time: 2026-03-16 12:17 UTC
Duration: 8 minutes
Peak Flux: 380 sfu
Latest Penticton Noon Flux: 109 sfu
Comment: Associated with M2.7 flare from AR 4392.
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.
