As Seen On:

” If you are fascinated by aurora and hope to see it someday (on or above our planet), you need to follow Tamitha Skov. “

Mike Fossum, NASA Astronaut

“We hold quarterly HF Communications Exercises with the Amateur Radio Community. Although the solar wind is great for aurora it’s a nightmare for us. Keep up the great work.”

Bob Jordan AAA2R9 / KD2BQM / WQSG766, Civil Affairs Officer, US Army MARS Region 2

“Your work is helpful, important, and inspiring– not only to me but also to my 12-year-old step daughter who now has an interest in space weather!”

Kiki Valentine, Independent Consultant

Great, consistent content. I appreciate especially how the presenter IDs groups for whom data points might be relevant: aurora photogs, air travelers, radio operators. The job is definitely futuristic. It’s just that the future, finally, is now.

Dr. Tamitha Skov

Dr. Tamitha Skov is a new kind of weather forecaster for our modern world. As we become more reliant on technology like our cell phones, GPS (GNSS), and other satellite services we find we are more susceptible to the effects of Space Weather. Just like terrestrial weather on Earth, Space Weather can be as mild as a rainstorm or as wild as a hurricane.

Let Tamitha show you in non-science jargon how this new kind of weather impacts your daily life. You will never look at the Sun or the Earth in the same way again. After all, Space Weather is just like the weather in your own backyard, it’s just a little further up.

Earth Gets a 1,2,3-Punch and the X-Flare Factor is Back | Solar Storm Forecast 15 October 2025

Our Sun has gotten busy! We have three solar storms on their way to Earth and along with a fast wind chaser, this should keep aurora possibilities high through week’s end. Aurora photographers will likely get a treat at high latitudes throughout the week, and those at mid-latitudes could catch the peak of the show around October 16-17. Amateur radio and GPS operators should expect degraded conditions on Earth’s dayside thanks to the rapid growth of Regions 4246 and 4248 as they rotate through some hot longitudes. The noise on the dayside bands has also steadily increased, with things expected to get worse over the next week. Expect the risk for X-flares (R3-level Radio Blackouts) to rise over the next few days. Learn the details of the coming solar storms, watch the growth of Regions 4246 and 4248, and see what is coming around from the Sun’s farside.
