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 177 Issued at 2200Z on 26 Jun 2010

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 25-2100Z to 26-2100Z

Solar activity has been very low.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low. An isolated C-class event is still possible on day one (27 June) as Region 1082 (N27W88) approaches the west limb.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 25-2100Z to 26-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been quiet to unsettled with an isolated active period at 26/0300-0600Z. Solar wind speed data from ACE indicated the onset of a coronal hole high speed stream at 26/0215Z with solar wind speeds increasing to around 450 km/s.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominately unsettled with isolated active periods for days one thru three (27-29 June). Activity is forecast due to a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream.
