    QUIET

    Current solar conditions are quiet with the geomagnetic field remaining undisturbed. An M-class flare occurred within the last two hours, but no associated coronal mass ejections have triggered Earth-directed impacts.

    Expect geomagnetic conditions to remain quiet, with Kp indices hovering between 1.0 and 2.0 throughout the next 24 hours.

    While the probability of C-class flares is high, the overall environment is not conducive to significant terrestrial interference.

    🌌 Aurora

    Aurora visibility for mid-latitudes is currently null.

    more

    Quiet geomagnetic conditions mean auroral displays will be confined to their typical high-latitude polar regions.

    👁 Watch for

    Monitor AR4494 for any signs of magnetic flux emergence or impulsive activity that could escalate the X-ray flare output.
