Bulletin

Solar activity has been low, NOAA AR 1748 produced a C6.0 flare with peak at 03:45 UT. This remains the most active region, although it is decreasing in complexity, and may lose its delta configuration soon. M-class flares can be expected, and X-class flares remain possible. Proton levels are decreasing, but are still slightly over the threshold for 10 MeV. A shock arrived to the Earth at 00:30 UT, it corresponds to the CME from May 15. It arrived later than expected, which can happen for glancing blow events. A short sheath was seen right after the shock. A solar wind speed of 450 km/s and Bz up to -15 nT caused Kp = 5, between 00:00 UT and 06:00UT, while the local Dourbes K value went up to 4. The CME from May 17 is expected to arrive around noon on May 19 and cause up to major geomagnetic storms.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 088, based on 08 stations.
