Additional Comments

The solar wind speed is currently at background levels and the geomagnetic environment remains QUIET. We expect the influence of recurrent coronal hole will become geoeffective during the first forecast period, enhancing the solar wind speed and increasing the geomagnetic activity. These effects will slowly decrease, reaching background levels by the end of this forecast.
