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 319 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Nov 2000

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

Solar activity increased to moderate levels. An M1 X-ray flare occurred at 14/1634 UTC. No ground-based optical reports were received for this flare, but SOHO/EIT images indicate that this flare originated near the northeast limb, possibly from newly numbered Region 9233 (N13E76). Region 9231 (S24E56) increased in spot count and area during the day. It produced occasional subflares, the largest of which was a C7/2n at 14/0806 UTC. A Type IV radio sweep began at 14/0831 UTC and may have been associated with the C7/2n flare. A Type II radio sweep occurred at 14/0902 UTC. Minor spot growth occurred in Region 9227 (S10W28).
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be at low to moderate levels. Isolated M-class flare activity is possible.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z
Geomagnetic field activity was at mostly quiet levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels during most of the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to decline to normal to moderate levels during the latter half of the period.
