Weekly Bulletin on Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
                  Highlights on 13 - 19.05.2019,
                 Forecast on 20 - 27.05.2019,
            Carrington Rotation 2217 (06,0.05.2019)    
            Earth out of ecliptic (-4.7 - -4.4) deg. 
             (S25 - N20 is zone of geoeffectiveness)

THE SUNSPOT-FORMING SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS AT THE LOW AND VERY LOW 
LEVELS AND AFTER 19.05 THE SOLAR DISC BECAME SPOTLESS (75 SPOT-
LESS DAYS IN CURRENT YEAR). ESTIMATED, MOST LIKELY  WEEKLY AVE-
RAGE VALUE OF THE RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER IN THE INTERNATIONAL 
SYSTEM (old) FOR PERIOD W = 8+6/-8 (Wn= 13+3/-13). TWO SUNSPOT 
GROUP IN NORTH HEMISPHERE ON SOLAR VISIBLE DISC HAVE BEEN OBSER-
VED. 

NEXT WEEK THE LEVEL OF SUNSPOT ACTIVITY WAS ON VERY LOW LEVEL,
AND THE SUN EXPECTED BE SPOTLESS. LIKELY WEEKLY AVERAGE VALUE 
OF THE RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER  IN  THE INTERNATIONAL  SYSTEM 
(old) FOR THE NEXT WEEK IS W=010+20/-10. 

 FLARE ACTIVITY WAS AT THE LOW LEVEL WAS 15.05 AND VERY LOW - 
IN OTHER DAYS. NO FILAMENT EJECTIONS AND MORE 5 CORONAL MASS 
EJECTIONS HAVE BEEN OBSERVED.

G(0-5)-geoeffectivity in last solar rotation on the middle latitudes.

 AFTER 23.04/22 UT EARTH IS IN "-" SECTOR OF THE INTERPLANETARY MAGNE-
TIC FIELD. NEXT SECTOR BOUNDARY -/+ THE EARTH MUST PASS 21.05.

THE GREATER THAN 2 MeV ELECTRON FLUX AT GEOSYNCHRONOUS ORBIT BEGUN AT 
11/1645 UT AND OBSERVED 11-16.05.  
 
NEXT WEEK THE GREATER THAN 2 MeV ELECTRON FLUX  AT GEOSYNCHRONOUS OR-
BIT IS NOT EXPECTED.

 THE GEOMAGNETIC CONDITION AT MIDDLE LATITUDES REMAINED QUIET AND UN-
SETTLED ALL DAYS EXCEPT 14.05. AT THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY 14.05 THE 
DISTURBATION  FROM THE SERIES  OF SOLAR FILAMENT EJECTIONS 10 - 11.05 
HAS COME IN THE EARTH'S ENVIRONMENT AND INTERACTING WITH OTHER, ACCE-
LERATED. COMING TO THE NEAR-EARTH SPACE IN THE FORM OF SINGLE DISTUR-
BANCE, ITS CAUSED 14.05 A VERY INTENSE 9-hour SUBSTORM (G3) ACCORDING 
TO THE DATA OF THE BOULDER CENTER AND 6-hour SUBSTORM ACCORDING IZMI-
RAN DATA.   

NEXT WEEK THE GEOMAGNETIC CONDITION IS MOST PROBABLE QUIET AND UNSET-
TLED.
