*********************************************************************** Product: Daily Forecast of Geomagnetic Activity Issued: 2019 September 19 05:27UTC Prepared by the Athens Space Weather Forecasting Center *********************************************************************** 1. Solar activity Solar activity was decreasing stable during the past 24 hours. Solar Flux (10.7 cm) measured on 18.09.2019 at 20:00 UTC was 66 sfu. The background X-Ray flux is at the class A6 level. The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels on September 18. No obviously Earth directed CMEs were observed in available LASCO imagery. The Kp index now is at quiet levels with Kp=1. 2. Solar Wind Geomagnetic Activity Solar Wind speed from ACE: 380 km/s. Solar Wind speed from STEREO A: 420 km/s. Solar Wind speed from STEREO B: --- km/s. The southward component Bz is: 2 nT south. 3. Solar Energetic Particle Events Protons and electrons are quiet. 4. Coronal Holes A new coronal hole (CH937) will be in Earth facing position on 20 September. 5. Geophysical Activity Forecast The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on September 19-20.
