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 171 Issued at 2200Z on 19 JUN 2000

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY HAS BEEN LOW DURING THE PAST 24 HOURS. TODAY'S ACTIVITY CONSISTED OF A FEW, LOW-LEVEL C-CLASS FLARES. REGION 9042 (N23W11) WAS ONE OF THE MORE ACTIVE REGIONS ON THE SUN, PRODUCING OCCASIONAL SUBFLARE ACTIVITY. REGION 9046 (N21E19) IS THE LARGEST REGION ON THE DISK (570 MILLIONTHS), BUT COULD ONLY MUSTER ONE SUBFLARE. A FILAMENT OF ABOUT 30 DEGREES LENGTH ERUPTED FROM THE NORTHEAST PART OF THE DISK LATE ON THE 18TH. A CME WAS SUBSEQUENTLY OBSERVED TO ENTER THE LASCO/C2 FIELD OF VIEW CLOSE TO THE NORTH SOLAR POLE AT 18/2140Z. THE TRANSIENT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE EARTHBOUND.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW TO MODERATE. REGIONS 9042 AND 9046 ARE THE MOST LIKELY SOURCES FOR M-CLASS LEVEL ACTIVITY. THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A MAJOR FLARE OR A PROTON PRODUCING FLARE.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD HAS BEEN QUIET TO UNSETTLED FOR THE PAST 24 HOURS.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO BE QUIET TO UNSETTLED FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.
