429 FXXX01 KWNP 012201 DAYDSF :Product: Daily Space Weather Summary and Forcast daydsf.txt :Issued: 2024 May 01 2200 UTC # Prepared by the US Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction Center # Product description and SWPC contact on the Web # http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/wwire.html # # Daily Space Weather Summary and Forecast. # :Solar_Analysis: Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: Solar activity has been at high levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M9 event observed at 30/2346Z from Region 3654 (S07W63). There are currently 6 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. # :Solar_Forecast: Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on day one (02 May) and expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares on day two (03 May) and likely to be low with a chance for M-class flares on day three (04 May). # :Geophysical_Activity: Geophysical Activity Summary 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 460 km/s at 01/0431Z. Total IMF reached 13 nT at 01/0552Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -9 nT at 30/2308Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 171 pfu. # :Geophysical_Forecast: Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at unsettled to active levels on days one and two (02 May, 03 May) and quiet to active levels on day three (04 May). Protons greater than 10 Mev have a slight chance of crossing threshold on day one (02 May).
