Product: 3-Day Forecast - Issued: 2026 Jun 07 1230 UTC
Prepared by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction Center.

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 Jun 07-Jun 09 2026 is 7.00 (NOAA Scale G3).

NOAA Kp index breakdown Jun 07-Jun 09 2026

	Jun 07	Jun 08	Jun 09
00-03UT	2.67	2.33	6.33 (G2)
03-06UT	2.00	2.00	5.33 (G1)
06-09UT	2.00	3.00	5.00 (G1)
09-12UT	2.67	4.33	4.33
12-15UT	2.00	5.33 (G1)	3.00
15-18UT	2.00	5.67 (G2)	3.33
18-21UT	2.33	7.00 (G3)	3.33
21-00UT	2.33	6.33 (G2)	3.67

Rationale: Periods of G1-G3 (Minor-Strong) geomagnetic storming are likely on 08 Jun, with G1-G2 (Minor-Moderate) storm periods likely on 09 Jun, following the anticipated arrival of a CME that left the Sun on 06 Jun.

Solar Radiation Activity Observation

Solar radiation, as observed by NOAA GOES-18 over the past 24 hours, was below S-scale storm level thresholds.

Solar Radiation Storm Forecast for Jun 07-Jun 09 2026

	Jun 07	Jun 08	Jun 09
S1 or greater	15%	25%	10%

Rationale: There is a slight chance for S1 (Minor) solar radiation storms on 07 and 09 Jun, with a chance for S1 levels on 08 Jun following the anticipated shock arrival of the 06 June CME.

Radio Blackout Activity

Radio blackouts reaching the R1 levels were observed over the past 24 hours. The largest was at Jun 06 2026 1401 UTC.

Radio Blackout Forecast for Jun 07-Jun 09 2026

	Jun 07	Jun 08	Jun 09
R1-R2	55%	55%	55%
R3 or greater	10%	10%	10%

Rationale: R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts are likely, with a slight chance for R3 (Strong) or greater events, over 07-09 Jun.

Sun Images

eit 171	eit 195	eit 284	eit 304


Images: From left to right: EIT 171, EIT 195, EIT 284, EIT 304 EIT (Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope) images the solar atmosphere at several wavelengths, and therefore, shows solar material at different temperatures. In the images taken at 304 Angstrom the bright material is at 60,000 to 80,000 degrees Kelvin. In those taken at 171 Angstrom, at 1 million degrees. 195 Angstrom images correspond to about 1.5 million Kelvin, 284 Angstrom to 2 million degrees. The hotter the temperature, the higher you look in the solar atmosphere.

SDO/HMI Continuum	SDO/HMI Magnetogram	LASCO C2	LASCO C3


The MDI (Michelson Doppler Imager) images shown here are taken in the continuum near the Ni I 6768 Angstrom line. The most prominent features are the sun spots.		LASCO (Large Angle Spectrometric Coronagraph) is able to take images of the solar corona by blocking the light coming directly from the Sun with an occulter disk, creating an artificial eclipse within the instrument itself.
