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 176 Issued at 2200Z on 25 Jun 2002IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z Solar activity decreased to very low levels. Isolated
B-class X-ray flares occurred, one of which was associated with an
optical subflare from Region 8 (S11W15). Region 8 showed no
significant changes during the period with minor mixed polarities
present within the spots just south of the dominant, asymmetric
leader spot. Region 5 (N11W44) showed gradual loss of spots and
area. Decay was also noted in Region 11 (S12E23). No significant
changes were noted in the remaining regions including newly numbered
Region 16 (S15E71).
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be at
very low to low levels.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z
Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet to unsettled levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
Geomagnetic field activity is
expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels.
