Value: G2 S0 R0
Rated on: NOAA scales G0–G2, S0–S1, R0–R2.

Geomagnetic storm eased to quiet levels; no radiation or radio storms

Why it's at this level: NOAA's scales reached G2 (moderate) geomagnetic storm levels in the 24 hours to 1 Nov but were at G0 S0 R0 at 11:40 UTC on 1 Nov. No storm above G0 is forecast over the next three days.

What this means for you: No significant space-weather effects are expected. Minor G1 storms can bring aurora to northern Scotland.

Why it matters: Severe solar storms can disrupt satellites, GPS, HF radio and power grids.
What moves it: Solar flares and coronal mass ejections; solar cycle 25 is near its peak.

Rubric — Alert: G4+, S3+ or R4+. | Watch: G3, S2 or R3. | Normal: NOAA scales G0–G2, S0–S1, R0–R2.
