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 318 Issued at 2200Z on 14 NOV 1999

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS HIGH. SEVERAL M-CLASS EVENTS OCCURRED DURING THE PERIOD. REGION 8763 (S16E18) PRODUCED AN M8/2B AT 13/0801Z, REGION 8766 (N17E57) PRODUCED AN M5/2N AT 13/1607Z, REGION 8765 (S14E32) PRODUCED AN M2/SN AT 13/1623Z, REGION 8759 (N12W20) PRODUCED AN M1/SF AT 13/1704Z, AND ONE OPTICALLY UNCORRELATED M2 OCCURRED AT 13/1809Z. REGION 8765 IS THE LARGEST REGION ON THE DISK WITH AN AREA OF 640 MILLIONTHS. THE MOST DYNAMIC REGION IS REGION 8766 WHICH CONTAINS A STRONG DELTA CONFIGURATION. TWO NEW REGIONS WERE NUMBERED TODAY AS REGION 8767 (N44W28) AND REGION 8768 (N16E33).
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE MODERATE FOR THE FORECAST PERIOD. REGIONS 8759, 8763, 8765, AND 8766 ALL HAVE POTENTIAL FOR M-CLASS EVENTS AND AN ISOLATED X-CLASS EVENT.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS GENERALLY QUIET TO ACTIVE. MINOR STORM CONDITIONS WERE OBSERVED AT HIGH LATITUDES DURING THE NIGHTTIME SECTORS.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO BE QUIET TO UNSETTLED THROUGH THE PERIOD.
