Additional Comments

Solar wind speed is decreasing as influence from the coronal hole high speed-wind stream wanes, but still above the background level. Slower and weaker coronal mass ejections from 22-SEP could produce a glancing blow that may elevate geomagnetic conditions to ACTIVE over the next two forecast intervals, with an outside chance of STORM G1 in the first interval. Geomagnetic conditions will reduce to QUIET levels in forecast interval three.
