A shock was detected in the solar wind data around 06:47 UTC on Oct 06. The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) increased from 8 nT to 13 nT, the solar wind speed increased from 415 km/s to 465 km/s, and the solar wind density at the shock increased from 1.4/cm3 to 2.4/cm3. The shock is related to an interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICME) arrival associated with one of the CME that was detected on Oct 01-03. Currently, the global geomagnetic condition is quiet (NOAA Kp=2) as the North-South component (Bz) of the IMF is almost always positive. The local geomagnetic conditions over Belgium is at unsettled conditions (K_BEL=3). Active to major storm conditions are possible in the coming hours, depending on the Bz component. Further arrival of ICMEs remain possible.
