Here is the current forecast discussion on space weather and geophysical activity, issued 2019 Aug 24 1230 UTC.

Solar Activity

24 hr Summary: Solar activity was at very low levels. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available coronagraph imagery.

Forecast: Solar activity is expected to continue at very low levels on 24-26 Aug.

Energetic Particle

24 hr Summary: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux reached moderate levels. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux remained at background levels.

Forecast: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to be at normal to moderate levels on 24-26 Aug. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux is expected to remain at background levels.

Solar Wind

24 hr Summary: Solar wind parameters were nominal. Solar wind speed decreased from approximately 380 km/s to near 350 km/s. Total field ranged from 1-3 nT while the Bz component was between +/-2 nT. Phi angle was oriented in a positive (away) solar sector.

Forecast: Solar wind parameters are expected to remain nominal levels on 24-25 Aug. Late on 26 Aug, enhancements from the onset of a negative polarity CH HSS is expected.

Geospace

24 hr Summary: The geomagnetic field was quiet.

Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly quiet on 24-25 Aug under a nominal solar wind regime. Unsettled to active conditions, with a chance for G1 (Minor) storm levels, are likely late on 26 Aug due to anticipated coronal hole influence.
