Bulletin

Solar activity remains dominated by NOAA active region 2242. This beta-gamma-delta region has produced four C-class and one M-class flares in the past period. An impulsive M1.0 flare, peaking at 1:49 UT on December 22 was the strongest one. More strong flares, at the C- and M-level are expected from NOAA 2241 and especially 2242. Also X-flares are possible (chance at 25%). The > 10 MeV proton flux as observed by GOES started rising gradually after the C5.6 flare of 20:35 UT on December 20. A faster ascent is noted after the M1.0 flare of 12:17 UT on December 21. The proton flux is decreasing again, but is still at an elevated level (near 1 pfu). As the NOAA regions 2241 and 2242 are approaching the west limb, we retain the warning for a proton event, which might occur in case of more strong flares. No additional Earth-bound CMEs were observed. A shock in the solar wind was observed by both ACE and SOHO/CELIAS near 18:25 UT on December 21. The solar wind velocity went from 360 to 440 km/s instantaneously, accompanied by a sudden increase of the solar wind density and temperature. The magnitude of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) jumped from 9 to 17 nT and remained at these high levels till about 3:40 UT when it dropped to about 13 nT. These are strong indications for the arrival of the December 19 CME. The vertical component of the magnetic field was mainly negative and varied between -17 and 8 nT. Active geomagnetic conditions were observed at Dourbes (local K= 4), with even minor storm conditions at the global level (NOAA estimated Kp up to 5). A continuation of the active to minor storm conditions (K=4 to 5) are expected, certainly in case of the estimated arrival of the December 20 CME in the course of today.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 089, based on 06 stations.
