Good Morning, 0bservers!
Solar wind speeds appear to be reflecting the coronal hole stream from the other day, but mildly so. We peaked out at nearly 400 KPS around 0200 UTC and 0500 UTC, with the range backing down to 360-380 KPS as of 1000 UTC. Particle Density remained steady for most of the period, only bumping up slightly around 0600 UTC. Temperatures only rose slightly from yesterday's high, but the Bt/Bz chart had a number of collisions which partially discombobulated the Phi Angle. Right now, Bt/Bz is showing a very wide gap after its latest collision at 0430 UTC. The expected/predicted geomagnetic storms from the twin CMEs earlier in the week never materialized, with the KP-Index only bumping up to KP-2 twice in the past 15 readings (each reading is three hours apart). The Magnetometer's sine wave is a little jagged but mostly nominal, although it did dip down to 40 Nt for the third time this week. Proton Flux is nominal, Electron Flux is still going over the alert threshold as it has for most of the week. The X-Ray Flux showed a single spike just crossing the Class C flare line, but the background radiation remains in the lower third of Class B. The video loops are showing a new coronal hole developing in the Southeast, quite a bit below and somewhat behind the new sunspot group mentioned in yesterday's report. The Class C flare appears to have come from the departing sunspot group in the Southwest, visible on 304Å and 131Å. That group is now barely visible on the Magnetogram, but the new one is now at Beta-Delta complexity and growing. Should cross central heliographic longitude in the next 36 hours.
