SIDC SOLAR BULLETIN 22 Oct 2015, 1230UT
SIDC FORECAST (valid from 1230UT, 22 Oct 2015 until 24 Oct 2015)
SOLAR FLARES  : C-class flares expected, (probability >=50%)
GEOMAGNETISM  : Quiet (A<20 and K<4)
SOLAR PROTONS : Quiet
PREDICTIONS FOR 22 Oct 2015  10CM FLUX: 130 / AP: 006
PREDICTIONS FOR 23 Oct 2015  10CM FLUX: 130 / AP: 006
PREDICTIONS FOR 24 Oct 2015  10CM FLUX: 130 / AP: 013
COMMENT: The Sun produced four C-class flares during the past period. The
strongest flare was a C7.7 flare (peaking at 17:56 UT on October 21),
originating from NOAA 2436.  NOAA 2434 produced a long duration C4.4 flare
(peaking at 3:40 UT on October 22), accompanied with a dimming and a CME.
The CME was first observed in LASCO/C2 at 3:12 UT and is propagating
southwest of the Sun-Earth line with a  projected speed of about 800 km/s.
Potentially an Earth-directed component will arrive on October 24. Flaring
at the C-level is expected,  but also an M-class flare is not excluded.

The solar wind speed gradually decreased from 450-480 km/s to current
values near 400 km/s. The magnitude of the interplanetary magnetic field
started at 10 nT, but quickly lowered to 5 nT. Geomagnetic conditions were
quiet to unsettled and are expected to continue. The CME of this UT morning
may cause a disturbance on October 24 around noon.
TODAY'S ESTIMATED ISN  : 096, BASED ON 09 STATIONS.

CCMC Rules of the Road: CCMC requests that users notify the CCMC, CME model/technique developers and submitting forecasters/researchers before performing event and validation studies with data from the CME Arrival Time Scoreboard. It is recommended that such studies be performed with the knowledge and collaboration of developers and submitting forecasters/researchers.

If you are looking for the official U.S. Government forecast for space weather, please go to NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center (https://swpc.noaa.gov). This "Experimental Research Information" consists of preliminary NASA research products and should be interpreted and used accordingly.
