Bulletin

The flaring probability is low. Only the newly emerging active regions on East limb and and NOAA AR 1855 have a small chance for a C-class flare. NOAA AR 1855 (now at central meridian, northern hemisphere) is a new flux emerging region and has developed a transequatorial connection with an old decaying active region in the Northern hemisphere. The arrival of the CME of midnight Sept 29/30 is still expected for midnight Oct 2/3 with an uncertainty range of +/- 6 hours. The CME is expected to trigger a minor geomagnetic storm (Kp=5) early Oct 3. Meanwhile the 10 MeV proton levels are still above the event threshold as a consequence of the same event.

Today's estimated international sunspot number (ISN): 032, based on 11 stations.
