Additional Comments

The solar wind is currently elevated due to coronal hole effects. The interplanetary magnetic field has mostly been in a southwards orientation which has lead to ACTIVE and STORM G1 periods.
While the solar wind speed remains elevated further ACTIVE to STORM G1 periods are possible. During the weekend the solar wind speed is then expected to wane, trending geomagnetic activity back towards QUIET.
