Additional Comments

Solar wind speed is currently elevated due to ongoing Coronal Hole High Speed Stream influence but this is expected to decline somewhat over the next few days. A weak CME observed on the 3rd may have a small Earth-directed component, although the bulk of the material looks likely to miss Earth.
Overall, geomagnetic activity should be QUIET for the next few days, but with a chance of an occasional ACTIVE period due to residual Coronal Hole effects, and a slight chance it could peak briefly at STORM G1 should the glancing CME arrive.
