ARLP044 Propagation de K7RA

Only five new sunspot groups emerged this week. First was on November 7, next
on November 9, two more on November 11, and another on November 13.


Average daily sunspot number declined from 193.4 to 141.6, while average
daily solar flux went from 248.4 to 203.7.


Predicted solar flux is 145 on November 15-16, 155 on November 17-18, then
145 on November 19, 140 November 20-21, then 235, 240, 255 and 260 on
November 22-25, 270 on November 26-27, then 255 and 250 on November 28-29,
240 on November 30 and December 1, 230 on December 2-3, and 225 and 220 on
December 4-5, then 225 on December 6-7, and 175, 170, and 175 on December
8-10, then 165 on December 11-14, 178 and 185 on December 15-16, 200 on
December 17-18, then 235, 240, 255 and 260 on December 19-22.


Estimated planetary A index is 12, 10, 8, 12 and 8 on November 15-19, 5 on
November 20-24, 10 on November 25-26, then 8, 5, 5 and 10 on November 27-30,
then 12, 9, 8, 7 and 5 on December 1-5, 12 on December 6-8, then 8, 12 and 10
on December 9-11, 8 on December 12-13, then 5, 8, 5 and 12 on December 14-17.

Weekly Commentary on the Sun, the Magnetosphere, and the Earth's Ionosphere -
November 14, 2024, from F.K. Janda, OK1HH:


"Of the three active regions in the past few days, two have fallen behind the
western limb of the solar disk. Therefore, the solar flux has dropped
significantly. The third sunspot group was AR3889, which crossed the central
meridian midweek. Its size of over 400 millionths of the solar disk area, and
in particular the optical 'F' and magnetic 'Beta-Gamma-Delta' configurations,
indicate that the production of moderate size flares will continue. So,
because it is in the west, like most coronal holes, the solar wind should
intensify, and the Earth's magnetic field activity should increase.


"This development, in fact, has already begun on November 14. First,
conditions worsened after the polarity of the longitudinal component of the
interplanetary magnetic field changed to negative between 0200-0500 UTC,
while the density of protons in the solar wind increased. This was correctly
followed by an increase in its velocity from 350 km/s to 440 km/s. Due to the
anticipated increase in the solar wind, a further several days of turbulence
is expected, followed by calming down only during the following week."
