Bulletin

Solar activity was at very low levels during the period. NOAA 2664 is decaying and lost most sunspots of its northwestern portion. The region produced two low-level B-class flares. No earth-directed coronal mass ejections (CMEs) were observed in available coronagraphic imagery. The greater than 10MeV proton flux was at nominal levels.

Quiet flaring conditions are expected, with a tiny chance on an isolated C-class flare.

Solar wind speed declined slowly from about 470 to 450 km/s over the period. Bz fluctuated mostly between -2 and +3 nT. The interplanetary magnetic field was mostly directed away from the Sun.

The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels, and is expected to remain so. The particle stream from a small equatorial coronal hole may briefly enhance geomagnetic conditions on 29 or 30 June, with a small chance on an active episode.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 018, based on 15 stations.
