The good news: returning sunspot region, NOAA 11079 (or 11080), is  
rotating into view (southern) over the solar limb.  The sunspot(s) appear  
to be significant in size.  This will raise the background hard X-ray  
level as well as the 10.7-cm flux during the Field Day weekend.

Bad news?  The geomagnetic activity is increasing to Active at this time  
(0630 UTC, 26-June-2010).  Kp is 4, and this might increase over the  
weekend as forecast, due to the coronal hole now in geo-effective position.
