| During the last week, solar activity was moderate on 11 and 14 Jan, low for the rest of the time. 12 sunspot active regions (AR4333-AR4334, AR4336-AR4337, AR4339-AR4346) were on the visible disk with 2 M-class flares produced. The F10.7 index ranged between 111 sfu and 139 sfu. No solar proton event occurred. Due to the effects of a CME from 8 Jan and recurrent coronal hole high speed stream, the solar wind speed reached a peak of about 620 km/s and the geomagnetic field was at moderate storm levels for 6 hours, minor storm active levels for 12 hours and active levels for 24 hours on 9-13 Jan. The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels for the rest of time. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached minor storm levels on 13-15 Jan. | | | Within the next week, solar activity is expected to be low to moderate with chances for M-class flares. The geomagnetic field is expected to reach isolated active to storm levels on 17-20 Jan due to the effect of the recurrent coronal hole high speed stream. It will be mainly quiet to unsettled for the rest of the time. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit will remain at minor storm level on 16, 20-22 Jan. | | Published: 2026-01-16 06:30 UTC Forecaster: 039/026 |

The geomagnetic field reached minor storm for 3 hours and active levels for 3 hours on 22 Jan. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached minor storm levels on 16, 18-19, and 22 Jan. | | | Within the next week, solar activity is expected to be low to moderate with chances for M-class flares. The geomagnetic field is expected to reach isolated active to storm levels on 29 Jan due to the effect of the recurrent coronal hole high speed stream.
