:Product: Forecast Discussion:Issued: 2021 Jul 17 1230 UTC# Prepared by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction CenterSolar Activity
.24 hr Summary...Solar activity was at very low levels. Region 2842 (N26W08, Cso/beta)produced the strongest even of the period, a B7/Sf flare at 17/0317 UTC.The region developed E-W magnetic inversion line. The other two numberedregions with spots remained relatively simple and quiet. A new region ofemerging flux near S15E01 was noted and will be assigned an activeregion number if it persists.
Other activity included a Type II radio sweep (439 km/s) beginning at17/0510 UTC. The event appears to be associated with a CME around the Elimb. An EIT wave observed in several wavelengths propagating westwardfrom the Suns far side. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed inavailable coronagraph imagery.
.Forecast...Very low solar activity is expected 18-20 Jul.
Energetic Particle
.24 hr Summary...The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels.The greater than 10 MeV proton flux remained at background values.
.Forecast...The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to continue at normalto moderate levels 18-20 Jul, with a chance for high levels on 18 Juldue to recent CH HSS activity. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux isexpected to remain at background.
Solar Wind
.24 hr Summary...Solar wind parameters were at nominal levels. Solar wind speed averagednear 425 km/s. Total magnetic field strength was below 5 nT. Phi angletransitioned from negative to predominantly positive after 16/2310 UTC.
.Forecast...Solar wind parameters are expected to remain at nominal levels through20 Jul.
Geospace
.24 hr Summary...The geomagnetic field was quiet.
.Forecast...Quiet conditions are expected through 20 Jul.

Solar Activity
.24 hr Summary...
Solar activity was at very low levels. Region 2842 (N26W08, Cso/beta)
produced the strongest even of the period, a B7/Sf flare at 17/0317 UTC.
The region developed E-W magnetic inversion line. The other two numbered
regions with spots remained relatively simple and quiet. A new region of
emerging flux near S15E01 was noted and will be assigned an active
region number if it persists.
Other activity included a Type II radio sweep (439 km/s) beginning at
17/0510 UTC. The event appears to be associated with a CME around the E
limb. An EIT wave observed in several wavelengths propagating westward
from the Suns far side. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in
available coronagraph imagery.
.Forecast...
Very low solar activity is expected 18-20 Jul.
Energetic Particle
.24 hr Summary...
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels.
The greater than 10 MeV proton flux remained at background values.
.Forecast...
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to continue at normal
to moderate levels 18-20 Jul, with a chance for high levels on 18 Jul
due to recent CH HSS activity. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux is
expected to remain at background.
