Here is the current forecast discussion on space weather and geophysical activity, issued 2020 Jul 03 1230 UTC.

Solar Activity

24 hr Summary: Solar activity was very low. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed.

Forecast: Solar activity is expected to continue at very low levels on 03-05 Jul.

Energetic Particles

24 hr Summary: The greater than 2 MeV electron flux and the greater than 10 MeV proton flux remained below event thresholds this period.

Forecast: Both the greater than 2 MeV electron and greater than 10 MeV proton fluxes are expected to remain at background or normal levels through 05 Jul.

Solar Wind

24 hr Summary: The solar wind environment was generally at background levels. Wind speeds ranged from ~ 295-335 km/s. Total field ranged from 1-5 nT, and the Bz component underwent no significant southward deflections. Phi was predominantly in a positive orientation while taking a few brief excursions into a negative solar sector.

Forecast: Background conditions are anticipated the next three days (03-05 Jul) with a quiet Sun.

Geospace

24 hr Summary: The geomagnetic field was quiet.

Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet for the next three days (03-05 Jul).
