Space Weather (SWX) Advisory
The Sun is the source of space weather. When violent solar phenomena occur, they create space weather effects on Earth, which can pose a hazard for human activities.
Space weather events occur when the Sun causes disruptions to aviation communications, navigation and surveillance systems, and elevates radiation dose levels at flight altitudes.
Space weather forecasts for international air navigation, address particular types of disturbances, i.e. solar radiation storms, geomagnetic storms, ionospheric storms, and solar flares.
These forecasts enable operators the opportunity to be aware and to provide alternative plans should normal operations are affected.
