Amplifications of the
solar wind, mostly from coronal holes, are expected on October 12 - 17, (- 18,
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.
