Additional Comments

Solar wind speed is currently at elevated levels due to the high speed stream (HSS) influence from the large coronal hole located in the southern solar disc. The HSS effects are expected to continue throughout the first two forecast intervals, resulting in increased geomagnetic activity with high chances of STORM G2 periods.
