[ips-sf] SWS Summary Forecast for 07 January - issued 2340UT/06-Jan-2017 [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

[rwc]

Very low solar flare activity is expected for today, 7 January. Very
strong solar wind. Geomagnetic conditions are expected to be mostly at
unsettled to active levels due to the recurrent coronal hole.
High-frequency radio communications are fair. High-frequency radio
communications users are advised to use lower than monthly predicted
frequencies today because the ionosphere is under the influence of the
very strong solar wind and the HF conditions may degrade further as a
consequence of the recent geomagnetic activity.
