activity summary:
Coming weekend, we expect quiet to unsettled conditions
till Monday,
October 23.
Between October 23 and 26, we expect active
conditions arrival cused by
coronal hole HSS which can reach the minor storm
level (October 24 - 25).
The last day (Thursday, October 26), we expect
unsettled conditions
return.

Geomagnetic activity forecast for the period October 20
- November 15, 2017
Geomagnetic field will be:
quiet on October 20,
30 - 31, November (19)
quiet to unsettled on October 22, 28 - 29, November 1
- 6, 13 - 15
quiet to active on October 21, 23 - 27, November 7, 9 -
12
active to disturbed on November 8
Amplifications of the solar wind,
mostly from coronal holes, are expected on October (22, 24,) 25 - 26, November 7
- 12
Remarks:
- Amplifications of the solar wind - prediction is less
reliable at present.
- Parenthesis means lower probability of activity
enhancement
and/or lower reliability of prediction.
