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 202 Issued at 2200Z on 21 Jul 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z

Solar activity was very low. The visible solar disk is spotless.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to remain very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was predominantly quiet to unsettled. A single period of minor storming occurred between 21/0300Z and 0600Z due to a coronal hole high speed stream. Solar wind speed at ACE reached a peak of 573 km/s at 21/0340Z.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet for the next three days (22-24 July).
