We do not expect any significant flaring activity. The Earth is currently inside the fast solar wind stream originating from a low-latitude extension of the southern polar coronal hole. The solar wind speed is now around 520 km/s and the interplanetary magnetic field is weak (2-3 nT). We expect quiet geomagnetic conditions.
