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 332 Issued at 2200Z on 28 Nov 2005

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 27-2100Z to 28-2100Z

Solar activity was at very low levels. A long duration B2 x-ray enhancement was associated with a small eruption in Region 824 (S14W35) at around 28/0830Z. An associated CME was observed on LASCO imagery at 28/0954Z; however, the CME was slow and mostly westward directed, and is therefore unlikely to be geoeffective. One of at least two new regions rotating into view on the east limb was numbered today as Region 826 (S02E62).
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to continue at very low levels. There is a slight chance of a C-class flare.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 27-2100Z to 28-2100Z
The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to unsettled with isolated active periods.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to continue at quiet to unsettled levels with isolated active periods on 29 November. Minor storm periods with high latitude major storm periods are possible on 30 November and 01 December as a recurrent coronal hole rotates into a geoeffective position.
