Solar Wind Prediction

The solar wind speed and desity predictions are made assuming that the particle density and the speed of the the same spot of the sun faces to the Earth are about same and it comes every 27 days. The uncertainty is basically a difference between the last two periods of the same spot of the sun faced the Earth.
