Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 17 - 23 August 2020
Solar activity was very low for the highlight period. The largest flare was a B3.9 on 19 Aug from Region 2772 (N18, L=296, class/area Cro/30 on 19 Aug). There were no Earth-directed CMEs observed during the period.
No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at normal to moderate levels for the highlight period.
Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet to unsettled levels during the period with weak influences from coronal hole high speed streams.
Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 24 August - 19 September 2020
Solar activity is expected to be very low for the outlook period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to be at moderate to high levels on 02 - 09 Sep due to recurrent coronal hole high speed stream influences. The remainder of the period is expected to be at normal to moderate levels.
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at unsettled levels on 24 - 26 Aug, 28 Aug - 02 Sep due to recurrent coronal hole high speed stream influences. The remainder of the outlook period is then expected to be at quiet levels.
