Above – Not live data

[2025-11-14] The tops of the Live Solar Events and Earth Geomagnetic Environment pages have fully working space weather dashboards with indicators showing XRay Flux, Radio Blackout Level, Electron Flux, Solar Radiation (Proton) Flux, Geomagnetic Storm Level and Kiruna Sub-Storm Level. The Radio Blackout, Solar Radiation Storm and Geomagnetic Storm Levels are matched to the NOAA space weather storm scales. The Electron Flux levels do not have published warning levels, so the levels shown on the indicator are un-official.

These indicators are driven from NOAA and Kiruna data and they update in almost real-time. The XRay, Electron and Proton flux indicators show the highest value recorded during the last hour. The Geomagnetic Storm Level (derived from Kp) is shown for the 3 hour block as shown on the indicator. This indicator only updates every 3 hours (eg. 00h, 03h, 06h etc). The Kiruna K level sub-storm indicator shows the highest level in the last 30 minutes or so. This indicator tends to be the most active.

You’ll notice the “♫” icon underneath. This is to show that the indicators make a chiming sound when values of Moderate and above are shown. The note of the chime is higher if the warning level is higher! I did try to add an audio mute button in case it gets annoying, but so far I’ve not been able to make it work.
