Covers geomagnetic storms, radio blackouts, and radiation storms. With active_only=false, also returns informational summaries, expired notices, and cancellations. max_age_hours controls how far back to look (default 48 h); the SWPC feed keeps all historical records and has no built-in expiry.

With optional coordinates, returns the local aurora probability at the nearest grid point, the minimum Kp needed for aurora at that latitude, and a plain-language go/no-go verdict. Without coordinates, returns only global metadata. Data updates every ~5 minutes. Coordinates are geographic (WGS84), not geomagnetic.

The quickest way to answer "is anything happening right now?" — use before deciding whether to drill into solar wind (noaa_spaceweather_get_solar_wind), aurora (noaa_spaceweather_get_aurora_forecast), or alert details (noaa_spaceweather_get_alerts).

Kp is the primary driver of aurora visibility and geomagnetic storm severity: Kp≥5 is G1, Kp≥7 is G3 (aurora to ~50°), Kp≥9 is G5 extreme. Use noaa_spaceweather_get_conditions for a combined snapshot including storm scales; use this tool when you need the Kp time series or forecast detail.

For operators tracking HF radio blackout (R-scale, driven by X-ray) and radiation storm risk (S-scale, driven by protons). Active region data helps identify which region is driving current activity.
