10-12 Feb.
B. NOAA Solar Radiation Activity Observation and Forecast

Feb 10 Feb 11 Feb 12
S1 or greater 25% 25% 25%
Rationale: There is a chance for S1 (Minor) or greater solar radiation
storms on 10-12 Feb due to the flare potential and location of Region
4366.
C. NOAA Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast
Radio blackouts reaching the R1 levels were observed over the past 24
hours. The largest was at Feb 09 2026 0227 UTC.

Rationale: G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storms are likely on 15 Feb due to
combined potential from a recurrent coronal hole and a passing coronal
mass ejection.

Rationale: There exists a slight chance for R1-R2 (Minor) radio
blackouts over 13-15 Feb due to the flare potential of multiple active
regions on the Suns visible disk.
