U.S. power consumption hit record levels in 2025 and continues climbing, while retiring coal and natural gas plants aren't being replaced fast enough to meet demand. The mismatch is raising blackout risk across an aging grid.
Magnolia Reporter - Magnolia, Arkansas News NOAA Forecasts G2 Geomagnetic Storm Saturday; Lesser Activity Follows
NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a G2 moderate geomagnetic storm forecast for Saturday, with continued but reduced activity expected Sunday and Monday. Solar radiation storm risk remains low at 5 percent.
Forbes G2 Geomagnetic Storm Expected Saturday; NOAA Issues Kp 4.6 Alert
NOAA has forecast a G2-class geomagnetic storm arriving early Saturday morning, driven by multiple coronal mass ejections. Northern Lights visibility extends to at least 10 U.S. states Saturday night.
NOAA's SOLAR-1 Goes Live: 24/7 Space Weather Surveillance Now Active
NOAA has activated SOLAR-1, a dedicated satellite system providing continuous space weather monitoring and early-warning capability. This marks a significant upgrade in U.S. alert infrastructure for solar events that could disrupt power grids and communications.
NOAA Deploys SOLAR-1: First Dedicated Space Weather Sentinel Now Operational
The US has launched SOLAR-1, NOAA's first full-time dedicated space weather monitoring satellite. This capability closes a critical detection gap—but doesn't eliminate the threat window for unprepared infrastructure.
