INFO FROM SIDC - RWC BELGIUM 2020 Feb 28 12:30UTC

Solar activity was at very low levels. The Sun is still spotless. A small
active region close to the east limb at latitude S10 seems spotless,
whereas another small region at latitude N25 is still at the east limb as
seen in SDO/AIA imagery. No earth-directed coronal mass ejections (CMEs)
have been observed in available coronagraphic imagery. The greater than 10
MeV proton flux was at nominal values. A small and irregularly shaped
equatorial negative polarity coronal hole (CH) is present on the solar
disk.

Solar activity is expected to remain at very low levels.

Solar wind conditions were at background levels. Solar wind speed declined
from about 380 km/s at the beginning of the period to 330 km/s by 06:30UT,
then increasing again to its current value around 350 km/s(ACE). Bz
undulated between -4 and +4 nT. The direction of the interplanetary
magnetic field (phi angle) was mainly towards the Sun until around 06:30UT,
when it switched towards predominantly a positive sector (away from the
Sun). Geomagnetic conditions were at quiet levels, with an unsettled
episode (09-12UT) recorded at Dourbes.

Geomagnetic activity is expected to be mostly at quiet levels, with an
isolated unsettled interval remaining possible. Late on 29 February or
during 01 March, geomagnetic conditions may become unsettled with a chance
on an active episode following the expected arrival of a wind stream
associated with the negative polarity CH.
