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 195 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Jul 2011

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

Solar activity was very low during the past 24 hours. New Regions 1254 (S22E59) and 1255 (N17E45) were numbered overnight and are classified as Cro-beta and Axx-alpha type groups respectively. Region 1254 produced a few B-class flares but all other regions on the disk have been quiet.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low with isolated C-class activity likely for the next three days (15-17 July).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled during the past 24 hours due to residual effects from the CH HSS. 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 quiet to unsettled with a slight chance for isolated active periods on day one (15 July) as effects from the CH HSS subside. Mostly quiet conditions are expected for days two and three (16-17 July).
