Good Morning, 0bservers!
Solar winds bumped up a bit overnight, peaking at 460 KPS before coming back down to the 400-420 KPS range a short while ago. There was a minor (and very brief) spike in particle density and temperature around 0200 UTC, but it almost immediately normalized. The KP-Index remains well in the calm range, mostly KP-2s with a few lower readings sprinkled in there. Electron Flux rose above the threshold again after dipping below it for the first time in days, but it's not as strong as previous crests in the particle wave. X-Ray Flux is back at the bottom of the Class A range. Those central coronal holes, as small and disorganized as they were, pretty much collapsed overnight so I doubt we'll see any effects from there. Even the polar regions aren't quite as large as they normally are, so our risk from those is pretty limited. There seems to be some new bright spots in the Southern high latitudes (and there's still an expectant glow along most of the Eastern lim). The Solar Visible Light video shows no underlying sunspots or traces of magnetic complexity. And, out in Temblor Territory (see what I did there?), we had a Mag 5.5 Northwest of Ternate Indonesia, a deeper (15 miles) near Ovalle Chile (inland, not off the coast), a Mag 6.5 North of Port-Vila Vanuatu with a Mag 5.1 aftershock about 90 minutes later and a Mag 5.4 20 minutes after that, a Mag 5.3 along the Northern Mid-Atlantic Region, followed by a Mag 6.6 along the Central Mid-Atlantic Region.
By the bye, I'd like folks to contact the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) and ask why only TWO of their seven "Space Weather Communities" pages have been working for the past couple of months. I e-Mailed them when it first started, never heard back, and the FIVE other pages are still busted...
