Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 244 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Sep 2021IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 31-2100Z to 01-2100Z Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours.
The largest solar event of the period was a C1 event observed at
01/0854Z from Region 2860 (S27W64). There are currently 2 numbered
sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast

with a chance for a C-class flares on days one and two (02 Sep, 03 Sep)
and expected to be very low with a slight chance for a C-class flare on
day three (04 Sep).

The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed
reached a peak of 345 km/s at 01/1226Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at
01/0450Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -4 nT at
01/0921Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached
a peak level of 3639 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at unsettled to major storm levels on day one (02 Sep), quiet to
active levels on day two (03 Sep) and quiet levels on day three (04
Sep).
