Additional Comments

High-speed wind stream from the large southern hemisphere coronal hole will be arriving in the middle of the first forecast interval, which can enhance geomagnetic activity up to minor storm conditions.
A coronal mass ejection erupted from an active region in the central disc around 19:45 on 04 September (UTC). A glancing impact is anticipated in the middle of the second forecast interval - likely during early hours of 07 September (UTC), thereby increasing the geomagnetic activity to STORM G2. Geomagnetic conditions are expected to subside during the third forecast interval, with an outside chance of a minor storm occurring.
