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 180 Issued at 2200Z on 28 Jun 2008

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

Solar activity was very low. No flares occurred during the past 24 hours and the disk remains spotless.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 27-2100Z to 28-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet. An unsettled period was observed at 2100Z. Solar wind speed gradually decreased from 590 to 530 km/s as the effects from the coronal hole high speed stream decrease.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly quiet for the next three days (29 Jun - 01 July).
