Good morning and welcome to the first day of Spring in the northern hemisphere. Later today the sun moves across the celestial equator from south to north. Solar activity during the past 24 hours was technically low with a long duration C7.9 peaking at 01:33 UTC (March 20). The source was region 2297 now located behind the west limb. Coronagraph imagery is complete and shows that the associated coronal mass ejection (CME) is headed to the west and away from Earth. With the departure of regions 2297 and 2302 behind the limb, solar activity is expected to decline to very low levels (X-Rays below C-Class) with a chance for minor C-Class flares. Region 2303 in the northeast quadrant is quiet and non threatening at this time. New region 2304 already looks to be fading away. Brief periods of minor (G1) geomagnetic storming were observed at high latitudes. The solar wind speed is currently at 570 km/s and the Bz/IMF component is pointing north. More flareups in activity will be possible during the next 24 hours.
