    Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
    03 - 09 March 2025

    Solar activity was moderate on 05 and 07 March with two M1 flares,
    neither had any significant radio or CMEs associated. The rest of
    the period was at low levels. No significant CMEs were observed.

    No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

    The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
    high levels on 04 March. Low to moderate levels were observed for
    the rest of the period.

    Geomagnetic field activity reached moderate levels on 09 March due
    to negative polarity CH HSS influences. Solar wind speeds reached
    peaks of near 675 km/s. Minor storm levels were observed on 08 March
    in response to the same CH HSS effects. Active levels were observed
    late on 04 March into early on 05 March due to suspected weak CME
    influences. Quiet to unsettled conditions prevailed for the
    remainder of the period.

    Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
    10 March - 05 April 2025

    Solar activity is expected to be at low to moderate levels for the
    outlook period. No noteworthy regions are expected to return.

    No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

    The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
    expected to be at moderate to high levels on 29-31 March due to
    recurrent CH HSS influences. Normal to moderate levels are expected
    for the rest of the outlook period.

    Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at minor storm levels
    for 10-11 March, 18 March, 26-27 March, and 05 April, all due to
    recurrent CH HSS influences. Quiet to unsettled levels are expected
    for the remainder of the period. (subject to change with any CME
    activity).
