1. Solar activity
Solar activity was almost stable during the past 24 hours.
Solar Flux (10.7 cm) measured on 06.07.2021 at 20:00 UTC was 83 sfu.
The background X-Ray flux is at the class B2.1 level.
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels on July 6.
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: 395 km/s.
Solar Wind speed from STEREO A: 285 km/s.
Solar Wind speed from STEREO B: --- km/s.
The southward component Bz is: 6 nT south.

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

4. Coronal Holes
A new and small coronal hole (CH1020) on the northern hemisphere of the visible solar disk will be in Earth facing position on July 6. A new coronal hole (CH1021) on the southern hemisphere of the visible solar diskwill be in Earth facing position on July 8-9.

5. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on July 6-9 due to CHs effects.
