    Geomagnetic activity is expected to remain quiet, with the Kp-index likely dropping further to 1.0 or below over the next 24 hours. No significant solar flares or radiation storms are anticipated during this period.

    🌌 Aurora

    Aurora activity will be restricted to high polar latitudes.

    There is no probability of aurora visibility for mid-latitudes (40-60°N) at this time.

    👁 Watch for

    Monitor the development of AR4562, as it is the primary region with potential for evolution, though it currently shows no signs of high-level flaring.
