The largest solar event of the period was a M1 event observed at 21/1931Z from Region 3679 (S09W46). There are currently 9 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 days one, two, and three (22 May, 23 May, 24 May). # :Geophysical_Activity: Geophysical Activity Summary 20/2100Z to 21/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 467 km/s at 21/1847Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 21/1836Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -6 nT at 21/1355Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 764 pfu. # :Geophysical_Forecast: Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one and two (22 May, 23 May) and unsettled to active levels on day three (24 May). Protons have a slight chance of crossing threshold on days one, two, and three (22 May, 23 May, 24 May).
