Latest SWPC 3-day Space Weather Forecast:
Joint USAF/NOAA Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast SDF Number 73 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Mar 2013
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours.
Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 379 km/s at 14/1849Z. Total IMF reached 11 nT at 14/1753Z.
The maximum southward component of Bz reached -7 nT at 14/1439Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 231 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to minor storm levels on days one and two (15 Mar, 16 Mar) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (17 Mar).
