Bulletin

NOAA active region 1846/ Catania 79 produced a C1.1 flare on September 24. Although the chances for more C-flares are small, we end the all-quiet- alert. ACE data show now a clear coronal hole signature. The solar wind plasma has a speed just below 450 km/s. It took this plasma around 4 days to bridge the distance Sun-Earth. On September 20, a northern coronal hole passed the central meridian. The co-rotating interaction region (CIR) followed by a fast wind measured by ACE, is probably linked to this hole. The CIR was responsible for 1 interval of Kp=4 on September 24. We expect quiet geomagnetic conditions, with Kp below 3.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 052, based on 19 stations.
