Larry,
The condition of the bands today and tomorrow are mostly effected by
what happened on the sun about two days ago. Unless there is a large
class M or X flare which could wipe the bands for a couple of hours.
There are several types of energy released when there is a flare on the
Sun, some travels at about the speed of light and some that travel slower.
Maybe someone with better knowledge than I will post a better explanation.

MY LAST POST THIS SUBJ: The WWV forecast for the next 24 Hrs
does not jive with the solar activity report from the NOAA Web Page
(last update 2200Z 28 APR 01). The solar activity report is predicting
low to moderate solar condx next 24 Hrs (exactly opposite of WWV).
This has already been seen by a drop in the solar flux. WWV says the
geomagnetic field will be unsetteled to active (solar activity report says
major to severe geomagnetic storms). K has increased to 5 - that is a
little more than active. Also there is a 75 % probability of another Class
M Flare next 24 Hrs due to a new, rapidly growing sunspot with major
geomagnetic properties. Good news for TX0C (invert bar across).
