GEO: QUIET
4
A/B (quiet)
The Sun is currently in a state of quiet geomagnetic activity with minimal flare production. While moderate active regions are present, the overall space environment remains calm.
The planetary K-index is holding steady at 1.0, reflecting a stable magnetic environment around Earth. Solar flux remains at a moderate 144.0 sfu, supported by the 24 active regions currently visible on the solar disk. X-ray flux is maintaining low background levels, with only minor C-class flare activity observed in the last 12 hours.
The Kp-index of 1.0 indicates that the magnetosphere is currently undisturbed, posing no risk to satellite operations or power grid stability.
Expect geomagnetic conditions to remain in the quiet to unsettled range, with the Kp-index peaking near 3.0. No significant geomagnetic storms are anticipated within the next 24 hours.
Aurora visibility for mid-latitudes remains low. Observers should not expect significant auroral displays, as current geomagnetic activity is insufficient to push the auroral oval toward lower latitudes.
| Region | Location | Class | Flares C/M/X |
|---|---|---|---|
| AR4435 | N23W42 | Hsx/A | 0/0/0 |
| AR4433 | S17W53 | Hax/A | 1/0/0 |
| AR4436 | N18E27 | Cao/B | 3/0/0 |
| AR4432 | N14W84 | Eko/BG | 4/0/0 |
Monitor the development of AR4436 as it rotates toward the center of the disk; any sudden increase in magnetic complexity could shift flare probabilities.
