Solar Activity: Brand new GPS Community Dashboard

[Lee Hixson]

NOAA has finally published--today--its new Space Weather website. As of this morning the old links will not work. Here is the new link for GPS users interested in monitoring solar activity to see if there is any correlation between the various graphs/charts and bad reception days:

The new site is loaded with good information--too much to review in a short period. I'm thinking that the 3 indices on the "Space Weather Overview" might be the ones to watch for predictions of bad reception.

Thanks for the tip! As long as nobody complains, I may just leave the auroral forecast and solar x-ray imaging animations running on my desktop constantly for ambient enhancement...

For sure.....that auroral forecast is awesome!
