SIDC FORECAST (valid from 1230UT, 07 Apr 2015 until 09 Apr 2015)
SOLAR FLARES  : Eruptive (C-class flares expected, probability >=50%)
GEOMAGNETISM  : Active conditions expected (A>=20 or K=4)
SOLAR PROTONS : Quiet
PREDICTIONS FOR 07 Apr 2015  10CM FLUX: 120 / AP: 009
PREDICTIONS FOR 08 Apr 2015  10CM FLUX: 120 / AP: 018
PREDICTIONS FOR 09 Apr 2015  10CM FLUX: 120 / AP: 017
COMMENT: The Sun released one C3.0 flare during the past 24 hours. It was
produced by NOAA AR 2320, peaked at 19:06 UT on April 6 and was associated
to a dimming, an EUV wave, a surge, a CME and a Type II radio burst. The
CME was first observed by LASCO C2 at 19:24 UT and had an angular extent of
about 140 degrees. The plane-of-sky speed derived by CACTUS was 339 km/s,
while the Type II burst corresponds to a speed of 691 km/s. This CME may
deliver a glancing blow in the second half of April 9. In the next 24
hours, more C flaring is expected, with a slight chance for an M flare,
especially from AR 2320 and 2318. Solar wind speed gradually decreased from
about 480 to 400 km/s over the past 24 hours, while the Interplanetary
Magnetic Field magnitude varied between 1 and 5 nT. Over the past 24 hours,
geomagnetic conditions have been quiet (K Dourbes between 0 and 3; NOAA Kp
between 1 and 2). There is a chance for active geomagnetic levels (K
Dourbes = 4) late on April 7 and on April 8, due to a possible glancing
blow of the CME of April 4. Quiet conditions with active intervals are
possible in the second half of April 9, as a result of a glancing blow from
the CME of April 6.
TODAY'S ESTIMATED ISN  : 040, BASED ON 18 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.
