Here is the current forecast discussion on space weather and geophysical activity, issued 2021 Jul 09 1230 UTC.
Solar Activity
24 hr Summary: Solar activity was low. Region 2840 (N27, L=036) which recently rotated around the west limb produced multiple C-class events, a C6 flare at 09/0755 UTC and a C7 flare at 09/1050 UTC, with an associated Type II radio sweep. Region 2839 (N19W20, Axx/alpha) was stable and absent of significant flare activity. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available imagery.
Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a slight chance of C-class flaring on 09 Jul, followed by very low levels on 10-11 Jul.
Energetic Particles
24 hr Summary: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux reached moderate levels and the greater than 10 MeV proton flux remained at background levels.
Forecast: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux is expected to continue at normal to moderate levels on 09-11 Jul and the greater than 10 MeV proton flux is expected to remain at background levels.
Solar Wind
24 hr Summary: Solar wind parameters reflected background conditions.
Forecast: The solar wind environment is expected to be at mostly nominal levels on 09-10 Jul. By mid to late on 11 Jul, parameters are expected to become enhanced due to the arrival of a negative polarity CH HSS.
Geospace
24 hr Summary: The geomagnetic field was quiet.
Forecast: Mostly quiet conditions are expected on 09-10 Jul. Quiet to unsettled conditions are expected on 11 Jul due to CH HSS onset.

Space Weather and Ham Radio YouTube Channel News:
I am working on launching a YouTube channel overhaul, that includes series of videos about space weather, radio signal propagation, and more.
Additionally, I am working on improving the educational efforts via the email, Facebook, YouTube, Tumblr, and other activities.
