Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
20 - 26 July 2020
Solar activity was very low throughout the period. New Region 2767
(S21, L=200, class/area Hsx/120 on 26 Jul) rotated onto the disk on
21 Jul, but was quiet and stable. A slow-moving, partial halo CME
was detected in coronagraph imagery in the NE quadrantat at about
19/1135 UTC. Subsequent model analysis indicated an Earth-directed
component would likely become geoeffective on 24-25 Jul. No other
CME activity was detected during the period.
No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
normal to moderate levels throughout the period.
Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet levels 20-23 Jul. Field
conditions reached unsettled to active levels on 24-25 Jul due to
effects from the 19 Jul CME. A return to quiet conditions was
observed on 26 Jul. Solar wind parameters reflected enhanced
conditions on 24-25 Jul as a result of CME effects. Solar wind
speeds increased from approximately 300 km/s to near 415 km/s. Total
field peaked at 11 nT while the Bz component dropped south to -10
nT. Density levels increased to 28 particles/cc. Ambient solar wind
parameters were present on 20-23 Jul and 26 Jul.
Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
27 July - 22 August 2020
Solar activity is expected to be very low throughout the outlook
period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to be at normal to moderate levels thoughout the outlook
period.
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be quiet to unsettled on
28-29 Jul due to a negative polarity CH HSS. Quiet conditions are
expected to prevail throughout the rest of the outlook period.
