No Earth directed CMEs in past 24 h. Solar protons have remained at background levels over the past 24 hours.

The solar wind speed is at 350 km/s with interplanetary magnetic field magnitude of 5 nT. Geomagnetic conditions have been quiet. The solar wind emanating from a small negative polarity equatorial coronal hole did not affect the Earth yesterday, but there is yet one more similar coronal hole which associated fast solar wind may affect the Earth in about 24 h, mostly unsettled to active geomagnetic conditions can be expected.
