Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 10 - 16 February 2025



Solar activity reached moderate levels on 10-11 and 13-14 Feb, with low levels of activity observed on 12 and 15-16 Feb. In total, six M1 flares (R1-Minor) were observed throughout the week from Regions 3981 (N07, L=341, class/area=Esi/190 on 10 Feb), 3990 (S10, L=191, class/area=Dki/310 on 14 Feb), and 3992 (S06, L=243, class/area=Dai/210 on 13 Feb). 

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at normal to moderate levels on 10 Feb, with high levels observed on 11-16 Feb. 

Geomagnetic field activity reached G1 (Minor) levels on 10 and 14-15 Feb, and active levels on 11-13 and 16 Feb, due to negative polarity CH HSS influences. 

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 17 February - 15 March 2025



Solar activity is expected to range from low to moderate levels throughout the period. There is a varying chance for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) events and a slight chance for R3 or greater events. 

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit, barring significant flare activity. 

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is likely to reach high levels on 18-19 and 23 Feb, and 10-15 Mar. Normal to moderate levels are likely to prevail throughout the remainder of the period. 

Geomagnetic field activity is likely to reach G1 (Minor) levels on 28 Feb, 09 and 12-14 Mar, with active levels likely on 17-18 Feb, and on 01 and 15 Mar, due primarily to CH HSS influences. Quiet and quiet to unsettled conditions are expected to prevail throughout the remainder of the period.
