Propane heater has an electric igniter, it won’t work w/out electric
Heater won’t run off of battery, it lacks a GFI resulting in a ground fault error
Work around: surge suppressor strip & neutral-ground bonding plug
Heater runs off battery that is plugged into the wall jack, keeping battery 100%

A. NOAA Geomagnetic Activity Observation and Forecast

The greatest observed 3 hr Kp over the past 24 hours was 8.67 (NOAA
Scale G4).
The greatest expected 3 hr Kp for Nov 12-Nov 14 2025 is 8.67 (NOAA Scale
G4).

NOAA Kp index breakdown Nov 12-Nov 14 2025

             Nov 12       Nov 13       Nov 14

21-00UT       6.00 (G2)    4.67 (G1)    3.33     

Rationale: Up to G4 (Severe) geomagnetic storms are expected on 12 Nov
due to CME influences. G3 (Strong) geomagnetic storms are likely on 13
Nov and G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storms are likely on 14 Nov due to CME
effects.

B. NOAA Solar Radiation Activity Observation and Forecast

Solar radiation, as observed by NOAA GOES-18 over the past 24 hours, was
above S-scale storm level thresholds.

Solar Radiation Storm Forecast for Nov 12-Nov 14 2025

              Nov 12  Nov 13  Nov 14
S1 or greater   99%     75%     55%

Rationale: S1-S2 (Minor to Moderate) or greater solar radiation storms
are expected over 12-14 Nov.

C. NOAA Radio Blackout Activity and Forecast

No radio blackouts were observed over the past 24 hours.

Radio Blackout Forecast for Nov 12-Nov 14 2025

Rationale: R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts are expected and R3
(Strong) radio blackouts are likely over 12-14 Nov.

If the weather cooperates, good possibility of seeing it again tonight (locally). 11/12
β€œWith the impending arrival of the 11 Nov CME later today, elevated geomagnetic storm levels is likely to carry over into 14 Nov (UTC day).”
