Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 26 December - 21 January 2017
Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels throughout the outlook period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to reach high levels from 26-29 Dec, 31 Dec-02 Jan, 04-13
Jan, and 18-21 Jan due to multiple CH HSS influences; normal to moderate levels are expected on 30 Dec, 03 Jan, and 14-17 Jan.  Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to G1 (Minor) levels on 26 Dec due to CH HSS influences. G1 (Minor) conditions are also likely on 04-05 Jan and 17-19 Jan. Active conditions are likely on 30 Dec, 06-07 Jan, and 20-21 Jan. Unsettled conditions are likely on 31 Dec, 02-03 Jan, 08 Jan, and 14 Jan. All anticipated enhancements in field activity are due to recurrent CH HSSs. Mostly quiet conditions are expected for the remainder of the outlook period.
