*********************************************************************** Product: Daily Forecast of Geomagnetic Activity Issued: 2019 May 25 04:07UTC Prepared by the Athens Space Weather Forecasting Center *********************************************************************** 1. Solar activity Solar activity was almost stable during the past 24 hours. Solar Flux (10.7 cm) measured on 24.05.2019 at 20:00 UTC was 66 sfu. The background X-Ray flux is at the class A6 level. The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels on May 24. 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: 325 km/s. Solar Wind speed from STEREO A: 440 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 A new coronal hole (CH919) on the southern hemisphere of the visible solar disk will be in Earth facing position on May 24-25. 5. Geophysical Activity Forecast The geomagnetic field is expected to be at very quiet levels on May 25-27 with a chance for unsettled intervals on May 25.
