Solar activity continued to be very low with X-ray flux remaining below B level throughout the period. Field separation was observed the simple bipolar NOAA active region 2719 inhibiting only a small potential for a possible C flare. X-ray flux is thus expected to remain below C level.
The filament located around the central meridian between 35 and 50 degrees North seems to have lifted off around 19:00UT. A possibly related slow (below 300 km/s) and faint CME front can be detected in SoHO/LASCO C2 images from around 21:12UT. It is directed towards the West and has an angular extent of around 90 degrees. Due to a datagap in Stereo A COR2 data there is no more accurate information on the direction of the ejecta. Given the speed, direction and angular extent of the CME from Earth perspective no impact on Earth is expected.
Proton flux levels were at background values and are expected to remain so.
Solar wind saw the continued influence of the coronal hole high speed stream. Solar wind speed increased before midnight to around 670 km/s before declining to around 600 km/s currently. Total magnetic field was at background values of 2-5 nT with a decaying trend. Solar wind conditions are expected to remain elevated under the influence of the high speeds from the transequatorial extension of the Southern polar coronal hole. A shock related to the August 19 CME could potentially occur within the next 24 hours but any effects should be small within the already elevated background solar wind conditions.
Geomagnetic conditions saw active periods around 18:00-21:00 UT (both local K Dourbes and NOAA Kp 4) but were otherwise quiet to unsettled (both local K Dourbes and NOAA Kp 2-3). Mainly unsettled geomagnetic conditions are expected but as solar wind speeds remain elevated and with possible CME related perturbations arriving, active periods are possible.
