Solar activity report

Any mentioned solar flare in this report has a scaling factor applied by the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC). Because of the SWPC scaling factor, solar flares are reported as 42% smaller than for the science quality data. The scaling factor has been removed from our archived solar flare data to reflect the true physical units.

Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 299 Issued at 2200Z on 26 Oct 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 25-2100Z to 26-2100Z

Solar activity was very low.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 25-2100Z to 26-2100Z
The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to active conditions. The solar wind data observed at the ACE spacecraft indicates the presence of the coronal hole high speed wind stream. Speeds have averaged around 670 km/s with Bz fluctuations between +/- 4 nT.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominately unsettled with isolated active conditions due to the influence of the coronal hole high speed stream.
