GEO: QUIET
2
A/B (quiet)
Solar activity remains at low levels with geomagnetic conditions holding steady at Kp 1.7. The sun is currently quiet, with no significant geomagnetic or radiation storms observed or expected.
The planetary K-index is currently at 1.7, indicating a magnetically quiet environment for Earth. Solar flux remains moderate at 136 sfu, providing stable conditions for satellite operations and radio communications. While two active regions are visible on the disk, solar flare activity is minimal, with only minor C-class output noted in the past 12 hours.
The F10.7 flux of 136 sfu is the most important metric, as it indicates a stable ionospheric environment beneficial for HF radio propagation and satellite drag management.
Geomagnetic activity is expected to stay in the quiet range, with the Kp-index peaking briefly at 2.67 before returning to quieter levels. No significant space weather disturbances are anticipated in the next 24 hours.
Aurora visibility is restricted to high polar latitudes. There is no expectation of mid-latitude aurora displays during this period.
| Region | Location | Class | Flares C/M/X |
|---|---|---|---|
| AR4491 | S11E50 | Hrx/A | 0/0/0 |
| AR4489 | S07E13 | Cso/B | 0/0/0 |
Monitor active region AR4491 for any sudden morphological changes or flux emergence, as it remains the primary candidate for potential C or M-class flare activity.
