SPACE - S0 - 20200425 - Hiding in Plain Sight, Weather, Data Missing
Good Morning, 0bservers!
We had an early afternoon (UTC) Phi-Angle shift in solar magnetism, which jumped the particle density of the solar winds. That caused a early morning rise and spike in solar wind speeds, going from yesterday's low of 325 KPS to a top-out of 460 KPS, then lowering to 380 KPS, and we're now in the 420-440 KPS range. The KP Index rose to KP-3 readings before and after midnight, but they're back down in KP-2 range. The 3-day SWPC forecast shows nothing above KP-2 for the next 72 hours. Some equatorial coronal holes developing and disappearing in the last 24 hours, we'll have to wait and see how or if they have an effect on solar winds. The bright spot moves closer to the midpoint, but there are still no signs if underlying sunspots or magnetic complexity. Only one quake of note yesterday, but it was a biggie - a Mag 6.3 about 80 miles west of Panguna, Papua New Guinea. Only a handful of weaker blot echo activity as well.
