A. NOAA Geomagnetic Activity Observation and Forecast
The greatest observed 3 hr Kp over the past 24 hours was 3 (below NOAA
Scale levels).
The greatest expected 3 hr Kp for Dec 06-Dec 08 2025 is 5.00 (NOAA Scale
G1).

18-21UT 2.67 5.00 (G1) 2.00
21-00UT 3.00 4.00 2.00
Rationale: Periods of G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storming are likely on
07-08 Dec due to the anticipated glancing arrival of a CME from 04 Dec.
B. NOAA 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.

S1 or greater 10% 10% 10%
Rationale: There is a slight chance for S1 (Minor) solar radiation
storms on 06-08 Dec.
C. NOAA Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast
No radio blackouts were observed over the past 24 hours.

R1-R2 70% 70% 70%
R3 or greater 15% 15% 15%
Rationale: R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts are expected, with a
slight chance for R3 (Strong) or greater events, on 06-08 Dec.
