SUBJECT: Discontinuation of Space Weather Advisory Bulletin
Effective October 5, 2012
Effective Friday, October 5, 2012, at 9:00 AM Mountain Daylight
Time (MDT), 1500 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the NWS Space
Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) in Boulder, Colorado, will
discontinue the Space Weather Advisory Bulletin.
Developed many years ago, the Space Weather Advisory Bulletin was
designed to provide space weather information at a level
appropriate for a general audience. Recently, however, SWPC added
equivalent general audience text to its alert, warning, and watch
products, tailored specifically for each category and type of
space weather event. For this reason, the advisory bulletin is no
longer needed.
SWPC alerts, warnings, and watches are online at:
http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/index.html.
To subscribe to these via email, please see:

Finally, additional notification and supplementary information is
online in the "Top News of the Day" section at:
