MSG 0 - Date: 2024-05-09 00:20:27.410
Space Weather Message Code: SUM10R
Serial Number: 795
Issue Time: 2024 May 09 0020 UTC

SUMMARY: 10cm Radio Burst
Begin Time: 2024 May 08 2134 UTC
Maximum Time: 2024 May 08 2209 UTC
End Time: 2024 May 08 2309 UTC
Duration: 175 minutes
Peak Flux: 1000 sfu
Latest Penticton Noon Flux: 227 sfu

Description: A 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the 10cm wavelength was double or greater than the initial 10cm radio background. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.
