Bulletin

Solar activity has been very quiet, no C-class flares in past 24 h. There are two visible active regions on the solar disk with alpha magnetic field configuration, NOAA AR 2610 is rotating over the west limb. Solar activity is expected to remain low.

Proton levels are low and there were no Earth directed CMEs in past 24 h.

Solar wind speed is at 350 km/s with interplanetary magnetic field intensity of 4 nT. Geomagnetic conditions have been quiet. There is an equatorial coronal hole that crossed the central meridian yesterday, its solar wind will affect the Earth in about 48 h. The southern extension of the northern polar coronal hole may affect the Earth within 24 h, causing up to minor storm conditions (with possible isolated major storm periods).

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 000, based on 06 stations.
