The strongest was an M1.7 flare from NOAA active region (AR) 3813, which peaked at 07:46 UTC on September 7. The most magnetically complex active regions currently on the disk are NOAA AR 3806 (beta-gamma-delta), AR 3813 (beta-gamma), and the newly emerged AR 3815 (beta-gamma). Solar flaring activity is expected to remain at moderate levels over the next 24 hours, with the possibility of an M-class flare and a chance for isolated X-class flares. Coronal mass ejections: No Earth-directed coronal mass ejection (CME) was detected in LASCO/C2 coronagraph images over the past 24 hours. Solar wind: The solar wind parameters reflect a slow wind speed regime. The total interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) ranged between 5 nT and 8 nT, slightly increasing over the last 6 hours and reaching 10 nT. The southward IMF component (Bz) fluctuated between -7 nT and +9 nT. The solar wind speed remained around 335-430 km/s. Solar wind conditions are expected to become more enhanced in the next 24 hours due to the September 3 coronal mass ejection, combined with the high-speed stream from the small negative polarity coronal hole that crossed the central meridian on September 3. Geomagnetism: Geomagnetic conditions were quiet both globally and locally, with some periods of unsettled conditions (NOAA Kp and K-Dourbes indices of 1-3). Quiet to unsettled conditions are expected in the next 24 hours, with possible active periods in response to the anticipated enhancement of solar wind conditions. Proton flux levels: The greater than 10 MeV GOES proton flux has now returned to background levels. It is expected to remain at background levels over the next 24 hours. However, there is a small chance of exceeding the threshold if high-energy flares or eruptions occur. Electron fluxes at GEO: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux, as measured by the GOES-16 satellite, remained below the threshold over the past 24 hours and is expected to remain so in the coming 24 hours. The 24-hour electron fluence is currently at normal levels and is expected to stay that way over the next 24 hours. TODAY'S ESTIMATED ISN : 162, BASED ON 10 STATIONS.
