Although disruptions from CH HSS and CMEs are still possible, geomagnetic activity is mostly quiet to unsettled (Kp 1–3), the risk of solar flares is very low (M05%, X01%), and the solar flux has dropped to 100. This trend is expected to continue over the next few days. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

Geomagnetic activity is expected to range from unsettled to active (Kp 3–4), and the combination of fast solar wind and CMEs grazing the Earth will likely lead to some stronger storms. Furthermore, M-class flares are unlikely (M05% X01%). 30/20m are best for DX. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr
