Bulletin

Solar activity was eruptive with a C2.2 flare as strongest flare originating from NOAA AR 1828. A faint partial halo CME was observed in LASCO/C2 around 5h00 UT which was confirmed by STEREO A and B data. It seems to be associated to a small filament eruption located near S15E15, observed in PROBA2/SWAP and GONG H-alpha data. The CME seems to be travelling mainly to the east with a projected speed of 360 km/s. First analysis suggests a possible arrival at 25 August at 9h UT, but this will be further evaluated. We expect C-class flaring activity to continue. There is a slight chance for M-class flares, especially from NOAA active regions 1820 and 1827 that currently have a beta-gamma configuration of their photospheric magnetic field. ACE has observed a jump yesterday at 22h UT in all the plasma parameters jump, but not the magnetic field. This seems to be the arrival of the equatorial CH fast speed stream. Local K-index at Dourbes currently is at K=3 and Kp went up to Kp=4, due to combined effects of the fast speed stream and some influence of a flank of the CME of August 17, that possibly arrived at 2h this morning. Unsettled geomagnetic conditions are expected to continue and return to quiet after 24 hours.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 095, based on 13 stations.
