SIDC FORECAST (valid from 1230UT, 28 Jan 2004 until 30 Jan 2004)
SOLAR FLARES  : Quiet conditions (<50% probability of C-class flares)
GEOMAGNETISM  : Quiet (A<20 and K<4)

PREDICTIONS FOR 28 Jan 2004  10CM FLUX: 096 / AP: 024
PREDICTIONS FOR 29 Jan 2004  10CM FLUX: 106 / AP: 004
PREDICTIONS FOR 30 Jan 2004  10CM FLUX: 110 / AP: 001
COMMENT: We are still under the influence of the small equatorial coronal hole,
NOAA measures Kp=4. At the start of this UT day NOAA reached Kp=5 (Izmiran
reached K=6). Bz switched between positive and negative values but was above -10
nT. The solar wind speed is still rising, its current speed is about 550 km/s.
We expect the geomagnetic activity to return to quiet levels. Solar activity is
and will remain very low. The X-ray background is below B level now and is still
decreasing.
