DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mpho Tshisaphungo (SANSA Space Science)\nSpace weath
 er describes the conditions in space that affect both Earth- and Space bou
 nd technological and biological systems. It is a consequence of the behavi
 or of the Sun\, the nature of the Earth’s magnetic field and atmosphere\
 , and our location in the solar system. Space weather is one of the princi
 pal threats to modern technology. With the increase in technological syste
 ms the need for accurate space weather predictions and forecasts has incre
 ased. The paper presents the space weather predictions and forecasts done 
 by African Space Weather Centre at the Hermanus Magnetic Observatory (HMO)
 . The African Space Weather Centre has been appointed by ISES (Internation
 al Space Environment Service) as the Regional Warning Center (RWC) for Afr
 ica.\n\nhttps://events.saip.org.za/event/7/contributions/5114/
