Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
25 February - 03 March 2019

Solar activity was very low through the summary period. There were
no numbered spot regions. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in
available coronagraph imagery.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
normal to high levels. High levels were observed on 28 Feb - 03 Mar.
A peak flux of 45,516 pfu was observed at 03/1950 UTC. The remaining
days of the summary period were at normal background levels.

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to G1 (Minor)
geomagnetic storm levels. Solar wind enhancements from the onset of
influence from a negative polarity CH HSS increased geomagnetic
levels from unsettled to active conditions after midday on 27 Feb.
Isolated periods of G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm levels were
observed on 28 Feb - 01 Mar as wind speeds continued to increase,
reaching a peak of 608 km/s on 01/0340 UTC. An isolated period of
active conditions was followed by quiet to unsettled levels for the
remainder of 02-03 Mar as the CH HSS slowly waned. The remaining
days of the summary period were at quiet levels under nominal solar
wind conditions.

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
04 March - 30 March 2019

Solar activity is expected to be very low throughout the forecast
period. No notable regions are due to return to the visible disk.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to range from normal background to very high levels. Very
high levels are likely on 04-05 Mar and 29-30 Mar; high levels are
likely on 06-13 Mar and 29-28 Mar; moderate levels are likely on
14-19 Mar; normal background levels are likely on 20-26 Mar. All
enhancements in electron flux are anticipated in response to
multiple, recurrent CH HSSs.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to range from quiet to G1
(Minor) geomagnetic storm levels. G1 (Minor) levels are likely on
27-28 Mar; active levels are likely on 08-10 Mar, 26 Mar and 29 Mar;
unsettled levels are likely on 04-05 Mar, 07 Mar, 11 Mar, 20 Mar and
30 Mar. Increases in geomagnetic field activity are anticipated due
to the likely influence of multiple, recurrent CH HSSs. The
remainder of the outlook period is expected to be at quiet levels.
