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 323 Issued at 2200Z on 19 Nov 2007

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

Solar activity was at very low levels. The visible solar disk was spotless.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to continue at very low levels.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels. A co-rotating interaction region was seen at the ACE spacecraft at 19/1715Z elevating solar wind speeds to approximately 420 km/s. A sudden impulse (11nT) was detected at the Boulder magnetometer at 19/1811Z. At the end of the forecast period wind speed was approximately 440 km/s.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to range from quiet to active levels. On day one (20 November), expect mostly quiet to unsettled levels. On days two and three (21 to 22 November), conditions are expected to increase to unsettled to active levels, due to a coronal hole high speed stream moving into a geoeffective position. Isolated minor storm levels at middle latitudes, and major storm periods at high latitudes are also possible on 21 and 22 November.
