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 170 Issued at 2200Z on 19 Jun 2001

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

Solar activity decreased to low levels. Isolated, optically uncorrelated, low-level C-class x-ray flares occurred. An optically uncorrelated Type II radio sweep (estimated shock velocity 650 km/sec) occurred at 19/0335 UTC. Regions 9503 (N15W07) and 9506 (N18E20) each possessed a minor degree of magnetic complexity, but were stable through the period. The remaining regions were simply-structured and stable. New Region 9509 (S10W03) was numbered.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low to moderate. There will be a fair chance for an isolated M-class flare during the period.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z
Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to active levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels with a chance for active periods early on the first day.
