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 2004

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

Solar activity was low. Today's activity consisted of several C-class events, most of which were from Region 635 (S12E12). The largest of these was a C3/Sf at 1937 UTC. Region 635 continues to have a delta configuration in the trailer part of the group and this was the location of most of the activity in the region. Region 634 (N12W05) managed to produce a C-class flare and appears to have also developed a small delta configuration in the leader spots.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low to moderate. There is a fair chance for an isolated M-class event from Region 635 and perhaps also from Region 634.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled for the next three days (20-22 June).
