Additional Comments

Elevated solar wind speeds from coronal hole effects continue although these are expected to wane during the first period.
A CME which lifted from the Sun early yesterday may glance the Earth during the second period although confidence is low due to a lack of imagery. This increases the chance of enhanced geomagnetic conditions of up to STORM G1. Another coronal hole may keep solar wind speeds above ambient levels during the third period.
