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 153 Issued at 2200Z on 02 Jun 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 01-2100Z to 02-2100Z

Solar activity was at moderate levels. Region 960 (S07E62) produced three M-class events; an M2.1/Sf at 01/2152 UTC, an M2.5/Sf at 02/0611 UTC, and an M1.0 at 02/1035 UTC. This region is classified as a beta gamma delta magnetic group with an area of approximately 480 millionths.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be at moderate levels with a chance for an X-flare from Region 960.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 01-2100Z to 02-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to active on 03 and 04 June as a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream is expected to become geoeffective. Conditions are expected to be quiet to unsettled on 05 June. Based on the potential for significant flare activity from Region 960, there is a slight chance for a greater than 10 MeV proton event.
