In addition, groups are encouraged to set up in public places or conduct ou= tdoor activities, such as a Parks on the Air=C2=AE (POTA) activation or sat= ellite contact. The open-house event is built around World Amateur Radio Day on Saturday, A= pril 18, but your open house may be scheduled at any point in the month. In Brief... On Saturday, March 7, 2026, women interested in amateur radio and portable = operating are invited to spend the day at the YL (young lady) Parks on the = Air (POTA) Party.

Solar wind speed increased to 450 km/s. Sol= ar wind parameters are expected to remain enhanced on March 5 due to the on= going influence of the +CH HSS.

Regio= ns 4381 and 4384 remained the primary drivers of activity. The largest event of the period was a C2.9 flare from Region 4381 on March = 3. Region 4384 continues to rotate further onto the disk, but foreshortenin= g still hinders a definitive characterization of its magnetic complexity. Region 4378 showed some new flux emergence but remained mostly inactive.</p> <p style=3D"color: #000000; font-family: 'Calibri Regular', Calibri, sans-s= erif; font-size: 8px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 12px; margin-bottom= : 0; margin-top: 0; text-align: left;"> &nbsp;</p> <p style=3D"color: #000000; font-family: 'Calibri Regular', Calibri, sans-s= erif; font-size: 17px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 25.5px; margin-bot= tom: 0; margin-top: 0; text-align: left;"> Region 4383 simplified into a unipolar group following the loss of its trai= ling spots, while Region 4380 decayed to plage.
