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 325 Issued at 2200Z on 21 Nov 2007

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

Solar activity was very low. No flares were detected. The visible disk remained spotless.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z
Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to active levels. ACE solar wind measurements indicated Earth remained under the influence of a recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream. Solar wind velocities gradually increased during the first half of the period and reached a peak of 703 km/sec at 21/0920Z, then gradually decreased to a low of 601 km/sec by the end of the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at unsettled to active levels on 22 November as coronal hole effects continue. Activity is expected to decrease to quiet to unsettled levels on 23 November as coronal hole effects subside. Quiet conditions are expected on the final day of the period.
