Here is this week's space weather and geophysical report, issued 2020 Sep 14 0144 UTC.
Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 07 - 13 September 2020
Solar activity was very low throughout the reporting period. No spotted regions were observed on the visible disk and no Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available coronagraph imagery.
No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was normal to high levels throughout the reporting period. GOES-16 peak flux reached 10,200 pfu at 07/1600 UTC.
Geomagnetic field activity was quiet to unsettled under a mostly nominal solar wind regime.
Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 14 September - 10 October 2020
Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels for the outlook period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to be at normal to moderate levels on 14 - 25 Sep and at high levels, following CH HSS activity, from 26 Sep - 10 Oct.
Geomagnetic field activity is likely to range from quiet to G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm levels. G1 levels are likely on 27 Sep; active levels are likely on 25-26 Sep and 28 Sep; unsettled levels are likely on 23-24 Sep and 29 Sep. All elevated levels of geomagnetic activity are in response to anticipated CH HSS influence. The remainder of the outlook period is expected to observe quiet conditions.
