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 305 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Nov 2010

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 31-2100Z to 01-2100Z

Solar activity was low. A C1 flare was observed at 01/0443Z from Region 1117 (N22, L=063) as it rotated around the west limb. Region 1120 (N39E41) has been quiet.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low to low on day one (02 November). Very low conditions are expected on days two and three (03 - 04 November) as Region 1117 rotates off the solar disk.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 31-2100Z to 01-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels, with a slight chance for active conditions during the next three days (02 - 04 November). The increase in activity is due to a recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream.
