During times that hurricanes are approaching, or on the mainland of the US,
be mindful of the Hurricane Watch frequencies of 14.325 MHz daily, and 7.268 at night. Stay clear of these frequencies unless you are actively participating in hurricane relief activities. Other frequencies may be activated as conditions warrant. WX4NHC is net control for the Hurricane Watch net. A filament eruption and associated coronal mass ejection (CME) were observed on
UT day 30-Aug. This CME is expected to impact Earth from 1800 UT +/- 12 hours on 02-Sep, with impacts possibly rolling into UT day 03-Sep. G1-G2 geomagnetic conditions are expected over this time, with a chance for periods of G3 conditions. Blackouts could occur as well as enhanced or unusual propagation conditions will occur through Sept. 4 on the HF bands, and enhanced propagation may be observed on the 6 and 2 meter bands as well. |
