SPACE - S0 - 20210624 - Solar Filament Destabilizing, Magneto-Sense, Cosmos 

Good Morning, 0bservers!

    
     
Solar winds were more variable than usual yesterday, while remaining in the lower range. They peaked at 375 KPS just after 0800, dropped to 330 KPS two hours later, then took three up/down transits between 310-350 KPS over a three hour period, and is now in the 325-345 KPS range. That same up/down pattern repeated on the Temperature and Particle Density charts. Phi Angle patterns finally stabilized around 1300, and the Bt/Bz panel is starting to show some potentials for polarity collision, so Eyes 0pen for that today. The KP-Index was mostly calm yesterday, primarily KP-1s, but we did have a couple KP-0s before and after midnight UTC, and the 0900 UTC readings is up slightly to KP-2. Magnetometer is nominal, but the sine wave pattern is flattening out, so expect that to do a high/low jump in the next day or so. Proton Flux and Electron Flux are both nominal. After yesterday's rather impressive "big boom" into mid-Class C, the X-Ray Flux calmed back to the bottom of Class B, with only a small mid-B spike around 2100 UTC. You can see the large expulsion on the ENLIL Spiral, with the CME moving well behind Earth's orbit. The new sunspot group at the Southeast lim has finally crossed into view, and it's impressive. The Northeast sunspot is also displaying magnetic activity, a bit more so than the latter. The Northwest sunspot group is moving mostly out of range for planetary effects, and I'm not seeing much in the way of coronal hole activity except at the North pole. We'll need another day or so to see the Southeast sunspot more clearly, but there's at least Beta complexity apparent at the moment. The Northeast one is looking like it's almost two separate sunspot groups, one above the other, with matching polarities (negative in front, positive in back, with an extra negative trailing the lower one). However, they're not really showing up as "dark" on the Solar Visible Light loop on NOAA, more like lighter scattered patches.
