Solar activity is expected to be very low to low on UT day 22 October, with a small chance of a M-class flare. The solar wind speed is expected to be slightly enhanced due to coronal hole effects. Geomagnetic activity is expected to be quiet to unsettled with a possible isolated active period. Mostly normal HF propagation conditions are expected, with some possible mild degradation due to recent geomagnetic activity. No shortwave fadeouts are expected.
