Solar Activity
.24 hr Summary...
Solar activity was low. Only minor changes were observed among the five
spotted active regions on the Suns visible disk. No Earth-directed CMEs
were observed in available coronagraph imagery.
.Forecast...
Solar activity is expected to be at low levels, with a slight chance for
M-class (R1-R2/Minor-Moderate) flares through 09 Mar.
Energetic Particle
.24 hr Summary...
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels.
The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels.
.Forecast...
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to reach high levels on
07-09 Mar. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux is expected to continue
at background levels through 09 Mar.
Solar Wind
.24 hr Summary...
The solar wind environment suggested the onset of negative polarity CH
HSS influences. Total magnetic field strength reached 12 nT, and the Bz
component was observed as far south as -8 nT. Solar wind speeds
increased from ~350 km/s to ~450 km/s. The phi angle was predominantly
negative.
.Forecast...
Enhanced solar wind conditions are expected to persist through 09 Mar
due to negative polarity CH HSS influences.
Geospace
.24 hr Summary...
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels.
.Forecast...
The geomagnetic field is expected to reach active levels on 07-09 Mar
due to negative polarity CH HSS influences.
