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 318 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Nov 2010

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z

Solar activity was low. Region 1123 (S22W37) produced a C1/Sf flare at 14/0001Z. Region 1124 (N14W17) has grown in spot count as well as area while producing several B-class x-ray events.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low with C-class flares likely for the next three days (15-17 November).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet with isolated periods of unsettled conditions at mid and high latitudes. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels during the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly active with the chance for minor storming and a slight chance major storming on day 1 (15 Nov) due to the forecasted arrival of a shock from the CME on 12 November. Conditions are expected to persist at mostly active levels with the chance for minor storming on day 2 (16 November), and mostly active with a slight chance for minor storming on day 3 (17 November).
