Here is the current forecast discussion on space weather and geophysical activity, issued 2021 Jan 31 1230 UTC.

Solar Activity

24 hr Summary: Solar activity was very low. The solar disk was spotless. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed.

Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low the remainder of 31 Jan and 01-02 Feb.

Energetic Particles

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

Forecast: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to remain at high levels 31 Jan and reach high levels on 01-02 Feb. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux is expected to continue at background levels.

Solar Wind

24 hr Summary: Solar wind parameters reflected background conditions.

Forecast: Solar wind parameters are expected to continue at near background levels the remainder of 31 Jan. An enhanced solar wind environment is likely on 01-02 Feb as a recurrent, negative polarity CH HSS becomes geoeffective.

Geospace

24 hr Summary: The geomagnetic field was quiet.

Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly quiet until late on 31 Jan when unsettled conditions are more likely with the anticipated onset of CH HSS activity. G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm levels are likely on 01 Feb in response to the recurrent, negative polarity CH HSS influence. Active conditions are likely on 02 Feb as coronal hole activity persists.
