Bulletin

Solar activity has been very,low, no C-class flares in past 24h. Four active regions are visible on the disk (3 with beta and 1 with gamma magnetic field configuration), C-class flaring can be expected. Solar wind speed is at 400 km/s with interplanetary magnetic field magnitude of 7 nT. Quiet geomagnetic conditions have been observed in the past 24h. The arrival of a high speed stream from an equatorial coronal hole is expected to arrive within 48h, rising levels up to minor storm conditions.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 036, based on 06 stations.
