Additional Comments

Solar wind speed is slightly elevated due to the onset of a high-speed stream from a southern coronal hole (CH). Up to ACTIVE spells are expected to continue in the first forecast window.
A second high-speed stream is anticipated to arrive on day two from a northern CH. A similar level of geomagnetic activity is likely to persist, but a small chance of isolated STORM G1 intervals cannot be ruled out as the CH effects combine.
By the end of the forecast, conditions should be declining to background levels and overall QUIET.
