From 12 March 2018, the Operational Centre for Meteorology (COMet) will begin the processing and dissemination of a “Bulletin Space Weather (SWx)” daily, produced based on information provided by the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration). The Bulletin and the product associated graph, will be available to military users on the specialist portal “Prometeo 2”, the same one where meteorological information provided by the Air Force is made available. It is already planned that next year the frequency of update of the bulletin will be increased to four issues per day.
