Solar wind parameters were indicative of waning CME effects and formerly masked CH HSS influences were observed. Total IMF strength varied primarily between 6-10 nT and the Bz component underwent mainly weak deviations, with only a few periods of prolonged southward deviation. Solar wind speed decreased from ~700 km/s to near 575 km/s, however, a short-term increase back up to about 700 km/s occurred later in the period. The phi angle was predominantly negative. There is a 30% chance of solar activity, with a 35% chance of a minor event, a 15% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
