The Earth entered a recurrent fast solar wind stream late on Jan.25. This is a weak stream (350-400 km/s) but the Bz component of the interplanetary magnetic field has now turned to -8nT and the solar wind speed may rise further over the next 24 hours. This can cause unsettled to active geomagnetic conditions for the next 48 hours, followed by a decline. TODAY'S ESTIMATED ISN : 000, BASED ON 04 STATIONS.
