Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 101 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Apr 2022

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z

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 11/0521Z from Region 2987 (S31W06). There are currently 2 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low with a slight chance for a C-class flare on day one (12 Apr) and expected to be very low on days two and three (13 Apr, 14 Apr).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 586 km/s at 11/0412Z. Total IMF reached 8 nT at 11/0252Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 11/0549Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 995 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on days one and two (12 Apr, 13 Apr) and unsettled to major storm levels on day three (14 Apr).
