####018001879#### FXXX12 KWNP 061336 DAYDIS :Product: Forecast Discussion :Issued: 2024 Apr 06 1335 UTC # Prepared by the US Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction Center # Product description and SWPC contact on the Web # http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/wwire.html # # Forecast Discussion # Solar Activity .24 hr Summary... Solar activity reached low levels. Multiple C-class flares were observed from new Region 3633 (S09E75, Hsx/alpha) and from a region still behind the NE limb. Region 3630 (S11W31, Bxi/beta) also produce a C2.0 flare at 05/1307 UTC. Slight growth was observed in Region 3630 and 3629 (N05W35, Cao/beta). No Earth-directed CMEs were observed. .Forecast... Solar activity is expected to be at very low to low levels through 08 Apr. Energetic Particles .24 hr Summary... The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels. .Forecast... The greater than 10 MeV proton flux is expected to remain at background levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to continue at normal to moderate levels through 08 Apr. Solar Wind .24 hr Summary... Solar wind parameters were mildly enhanced under negative polarity CH HSS conditions. Solar wind speed ranged from about 40-475 km/s. Total field varied from 5-7 nT while the Bz component was between +/-6 nT. Phi angle was mostly negative. .Forecast... Solar wind conditions are expected to slowly diminish to background levels on 06 Apr. Nominal solar wind conditions are expected on 07-08 Apr. Geospace .24 hr Summary... The geomagnetic field was quiet and unsettled. .Forecast... The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet and unsettled on 06 Apr. Mostly quiet conditions are expected on 07-08 Apr.
