Geomagnetic conditions have reached minor storm periods (both at Dourbes and at planetary levels) due to the fast speed stream from a coronal hole. Conditions are expected to remain unsettled for the next 24h (with possible active periods due to the high solar wind speeds of ~700k m/s) and quiet after that. TODAY'S ESTIMATED ISN : 037, BASED ON 10 STATIONS.
