Bulletin

There are two active regions on the visible solar disc, both have beta magnetic field configuration. Solar activity has been very low, no C-class flare in past 24h, but they remain possible.

Geomagnetic conditions were unsettled to active both at Dourbes and at planetary levels (Kp = 4 and KDourbes = 4). Solar wind speed is now at 500 km/s with interplanetary magnetic field intensities around 5 nT. Geomagnetic conditions are expected to be unsettled to active with possible minor storm periods.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 042, based on 16 stations.
