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 182 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Jul 2011

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30-2100Z to 01-2100Z

Solar activity has been very low. There were several B-class flares observed in the past 24 hours from Region 1243 (N17E22) and new Region 1244 (N16W10). Region 1244 emerged on the disk and is a small B-type sunspot group.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low with a chance for isolated C-class flares.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30-2100Z to 01-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to active. ACE solar wind data indicated velocities up to 450 km/s consistent with a high speed stream from a favorably positioned coronal hole.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly unsettled on day 1 (2 July). Days 2 and 3 (3 - 4 July) are expected to be quiet to unsettled.
