Weekly Propagation Summary – 2020 Feb 17 16:10 UTC
Here is this week’s space weather and geophysical report, issued 2020 Feb 17 0312 UTC.
Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 10 – 16 February 2020
Solar activity was very low throughout the period. No active regions with sunspots were observed and no earth-directed CMEs were detected.
No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels on 10-11 Feb and reached moderate levels on 12-16 Feb.
Geomagnetic field activity was generally quiet with isolated periods of unsettled activity.
Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 17 February – 14 March 2020
Solar activity is expected to be very low throughout the outlook period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to reach high levels on 05-09 Mar with normal to moderate levels expected for the remainder of the period.
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to reach G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm levels on 04 Mar with active levels expected on 26 Feb and 05 Mar due to multiple, recurrent CH HSSs. Generally quiet and quiet to unsettled conditions are expected to prevail for the remainder of the outlook period.
