The background of the X-ray flux has decreased below the C-level. Four C-class levels erupted from NOAA AR 2109, 2113 and new region 2117. NOAA AR 2117 has emerged near the center of the solar disk. No new Earth- affecting CMEs were observed. Flare activity at the C-level is expected. Solar wind speed is stable around 370-380 km/s, as measured by ACE. The magnitude of interplanetary magnetic field reached a maximum of 6 nT with a Bz component fluctuating between -6 and +4 nT. Geomagnetic conditions have been quiet to unsettled and are expected to remain so till the arrival of a glancing blow of the July 9 CME. Active conditions are possible from the UT morning of July 13.
