| The Hakamada-Akasofu-Fry (HAF) solar wind
model runs hourly at 15 minutes past the hour, and results are available here about 20
minutes later. We also provide real-time
space weather forecasts as soon as possible following significant solar events.

Solar wind model
Inputs:
- Simulation start time. Simulations
typically cover the previous 3 days and extend into the next 4 days. The
28-day forecast begins at 0000 UT today.
- Event reports. Event inputs are based
upon solar optical, X-ray and radio event reports. We have proposed standardized event inputs to be used by
the modeling community for solar wind model simulations.
- Source surface magnetic field and velocity maps.
