Quiet: Jun 3 and 7 - 9
Unsettled: Jun 3 and 6
Active:  Jun 4 - 5
Minor storm: probable Jun 4 - 5

Geomagnetic activity summary:
Because of current coronal hole passage, we expect active conditions
arrival June 4-5, minor storm events are also probable at our latitudes.
At Jun 6, we expect unsettled conditions continuing. The following days,
