This short-term aurora forecast predicts its location and intensity over the next 30 to 90 minutes, based on the [OVATION model](https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/aurora-30-minute-forecast). The lead time of the forecast corresponds to the duration it takes for the solar wind to travel from the L1 observation point to Earth.

Auroras indicate current geomagnetic storm conditions and provide situational awareness for various technologies: for example, they directly affect HF radio communication and GPS/GNSS satellite navigation and are related to ground-induced currents impacting electric power transmission.

For many people, the aurora is a beautiful nighttime phenomenon that is worth traveling to arctic regions just to observe. It is the only way for most people to actually experience space weather.

### Meteor Scatter
|
||||||
Meteor burst communications (MBC), also known as meteor scatter (MS) communications, is a radio propagation technique that uses the ionized trails created by meteors entering the atmosphere to establish brief communication links between radio stations up to 2,250 kilometers (1,400 miles) apart. This can involve either forward-scatter or back-scatter of the radio waves. Like EME, the value gives the probability of a succesfull connection.

Sporadic E (Es or SpE) is a rare type of radio propagation that uses a lower part of the Earth's ionosphere, which typically doesn't refract radio waves. It reflects signals off small "clouds" in the E region at altitudes of 95-150 km (50-100 miles). Unlike the regular F region skywave propagation, which depends on daily cycles of ionized layers from UV light, Sporadic E uses transient ionized patches. This allows for occasional long-distance VHF communication, usually during the six weeks around the summer solstice, beyond the normal line-of-sight range.

Auroral propagation, or auroral backscatter, is a form of radio propagation that occurs during an auroral event, affecting VHF and UHF communications. Increased ionization in the E layer of the ionosphere reflects signals at much higher frequencies than usual, enabling communication up to 1000 MHz, though 500 MHz is more common. Signals are directed towards the auroral region and reflected back, but they are often distorted due to particle movement (the signal is roughly Doppler shifted of 1 kHz at around 150 MHz as the electrons stream down).

The D-Region Absorption Product (DRAP) evaluates the effects of solar X-ray flux and solar energetic particle (SEP) events on HF radio communication. Long-distance communications using high frequency (HF) radio waves (3 - 30 MHz) rely on signal reflection in the ionosphere. Typically, radio waves reflect near the peak of the F2 layer (~300 km altitude), but during their journey to and from this peak, the signals experience attenuation due to absorption by the intervening ionosphere.

|
The [D-Region Absorption Prediction model](https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/d-region-absorption-predictions-d-rap) provides guidance to understand the degradation and blackouts of HF radio communications that can result from these conditions.
