1. Solar activity
Solar activity was decreasing stable during the past 24 hours.
Solar Flux (10.7 cm) measured on 07.02.2020 at 20:00 UTC was 71 sfu.
The background X-Ray flux is at the class A1 level.
The geomagnetic field was at almost quiet to active levels on February 7. 
No obviously Earth directed CMEs were observed in available LASCO imagery. 
The Kp index now is at almost quiet levels with Kp=2.

2. Solar Wind Geomagnetic Activity
Solar Wind speed from ACE: 505 km/s.
Solar Wind speed from STEREO A: --- km/s.
Solar Wind speed from STEREO B: --- km/s.
The southward component Bz is: 1 nT north.

3. Solar Energetic Particle Events
Protons and electrons are quiet.

4. Coronal Holes
An extension (CH950) of southern polar coronal hole was in Earth facing position on February 3-5. A high speed stream (with v~600km/s) reached Earth on Feb. 6. A new small coronal hole (CH951) on the northern hemisphere of solar disk will be in Earth facing position on Feb. 7-8.

5. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on February 8 due to weak effects from CH950 and at quiet levels on February 9-10.
