9 January 10, 2008 Caledonia, MS  EF-3 Tornado  41 minute lead time  2,000 people inside no fatalities, 3 injuries Building a Weather-Ready Nation Tornado Warnings

10 Building a Weather-Ready Nation Space Weather  Next solar maximum is expected 2013  Space weather impacts:  Satellites (i.e. Galaxy 15)  GPS Reliability  Aviation (NextGen, Polar Flights)  Energy distribution  $1-2 Trillion potential impact Apr 2010

11 Space Weather Impacts  On Oct 28, 2003 NWS space weather forecasters observed a powerful Earth-directed eruption on the Sun. Space weather warnings were issued. In response:  Power grid operators reduced system load, disconnected system components, and postponed maintenance.  Airlines made critical decisions about route and/or altitude restrictions to flight operations.  Satellite operators took action to mitigate impacts.  Precision GPS users postponed operations or used backup systems.  NWS working with FEMA and DHS to ensure critical infrastructures are safe from extreme space weather events.
