Forecast Discussion
Product: Forecast Discussion Issued: 2025 Jun 24 0030 UTC Prepared by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction Center Solar Activity .24 hr Summary... Solar activity was at low levels. Region 4115 (N21W80, Hsx/alpha) produced a C5.0 flare at 23/1223 UTC, which was the largest event of the period. Regions 4117 (S13W03, Dsi/beta) and 4118 (S12E08, Dai/beta-gamma) remained the largest spot groups on the visible disk with the latter developing a weak gamma configuration. Regions 4119 (S26W03, Bxo/beta), 4120 (N06E04, Bxo/beta) and 4121 (S12E25, Bxo/beta) all emerged relatively rapidly this period, were numbered, but were otherwise unremarkable. New, simple spots were also noted near N16E54, but remain unnumbered at this time given a lack of development. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available coronagraph imagery. .Forecast... A chance for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts, with a slight chance for X-class flares (R3-Strong), will persist through 26 June. Energetic Particle .24 hr Summary... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux reached high levels with a peak flux of 1,270 pfu at 23/1520 UTC. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels. .Forecast... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to reach moderate levels through 26 June with a chance for high levels on 24 June. There remains a slight chance for the greater than 10 MeV protons to become elevated through 26 June primarily due to the eruptive potential of Regions 4114 and 4115 as they transit the western limb followed by Regions 4117 and 4118 rotating into a favorable geoeffective location. Solar Wind .24 hr Summary... Solar wind parameters continued to reflect a positive polarity CH HSS regime. Total field ranged 3-7 nT and the Bz component was +/- 5 nT. Solar wind speeds gradually decreased from ~500 km/s to near 400 km/s over the course of the period. Phi was predominantly in the positive solar sector. .Forecast... Gradually waning positive polarity CH HSS influence is expected to continue on 24 June. An enhanced solar wind regime is expected to return on 25 June and continue into 26 June due to recurrent, negative polarity CH HSS onset. Geospace .24 hr Summary... The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels. .Forecast... The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to active levels on 24 June under diminishing positive polarity CH HSS effects. G1-G2 (Minor-Moderate) geomagnetic storming is likely 25-26 June due to recurrent, negative polarity CH HSS effects.

Forecast Discussion
Product: Forecast Discussion Issued: 2025 Jun 23 1230 UTC Prepared by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction Center Solar Activity .24 hr Summary... Solar activity was at low levels due to numerous weak C-class flares from Regions 4114 (N21W83, Hsx/alpha) and 4118 (S12E15, Dai/beta). Region 4118 showed some slight trailer spot growth. The remaining spotted regions on the visible disk were either stable or in gradual decay. Other activity included a CME that was observed lifting off the NW quadrant in the vicinity of Region 4115 (N21W73, Cso/beta) at around 22/1348 UTC. Analysis and modeling of this event indicated no Earth-directed component. .Forecast... There exists a chance for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts, with a slight chance for X-class flares (R3-Strong), over 23-25 June. Energetic Particle .24 hr Summary... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at low to moderate levels. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels. .Forecast... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is likely to continue at low to moderate levels over 23-25 Jun. There remains a slight chance for the greater than 10 MeV protons to become elevated over 23-25 Jun due to eruptive potential from multiple regions on the visible disk. Solar Wind .24 hr Summary... Solar wind parameters continued to reflect a positive polarity CH HSS regime. Total magnetic field strength was between 5-6 nT. The Bz component reached as far south as -5 nT. Solar wind speeds varied from ~425-500 km/s. Phi angle was predominantly oriented in the positive sector. .Forecast... Elevated solar wind parameters from the influence of multiple, recurrent coronal holes is expected over 23-25 Jun. Geospace .24 hr Summary... The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels. .Forecast... The geomagnetic field is likely to reach isolated periods of active conditions over 23-24 Jun, and G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm periods are likely on 25 Jun, due to coronal hole effects.

Solar activity was at low levels. A C1.5 flare at 22/1741 UTC from beyond the W limb was the strongest event of the period. Some minor development was observed in Regions 4118 (S13E22, Dai/beta) and 4117 (S15E11, Dsi/beta). The remaining spotted regions on the visible disk were either stable or in gradual decay. Other activity included a CME that was observed lifting off the NW quadrant in the vicinity of Region 4115 (N22W66, Eso/beta) at around 22/1348 UTC. Analysis and modeling of the event is ongoing. .Forecast... There exists a chance for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts, with a slight chance for X-class flares (R3-Strong), over 23-25 June. Energetic Particle .24 hr Summary... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at low to moderate levels. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels. .Forecast... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is likely to continue at low to moderate levels over 23-25 Jun. There remains a slight chance for the greater than 10 MeV protons to become elevated over 23-25 Jun due to eruptive potential from multiple regions on the visible disk. Solar Wind .24 hr Summary... Solar wind parameters continued to reflect a positive polarity CH HSS regime. Total magnetic field strength was between 3-6 nT. The Bz component reached as far south as -5 nT. Solar wind speeds varied from ~425-575 km/s. Phi angle was predominantly oriented in the positive sector. .Forecast... Elevated solar wind parameters from the influence of multiple, recurrent coronal holes is expected over 23-25 Jun. Geospace .24 hr Summary... The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. .Forecast... The geomagnetic field is likely to reach isolated periods of active conditions over 23-24 Jun, and G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm periods are likely on 25 Jun, due to coronal hole effects.

R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts remain likely, with a slight chance for X-class flares (R3-Strong), over 22-24 June. Energetic Particle .24 hr Summary... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at low to moderate levels. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels. .Forecast... The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is likely to continue at low to moderate levels over 21-23 Jun. There remains a slight chance for protons to become elevated following any significant activity from multiple regions on the visible disk. Solar Wind .24 hr Summary... Solar wind parameters continued to reflect a positive polarity CH HSS regime. Total magnetic field strength was between 6-10 nT. The Bz component reached as far south as -7 nT. Solar wind speeds varied from ~450-575 km/s. Phi angle was predominantly oriented in the positive sector. .Forecast... Elevated solar wind parameters from the influence of a positive polarity coronal hole is likely to persist over 22-24 Jun. Geospace .24 hr Summary... The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. .Forecast... Quiet to unsettled conditions are likely over 22 Jun due to continued coronal hole effects. Active conditions are possible over 23-24 Jun.
