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 312 Issued at 2200Z on 07 NOV 1996

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 06-2100Z to 07-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY REMAINED VERY LOW. THE DISK WAS SPOTLESS AND NEARLY FEATURELESS. A SMALL CORONAL HOLE THAT WAS VISIBLE LAST ROTATION SHOULD BE APPROACHING CENTRAL MERIDIAN AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER, THIS HOLE IS NOT CURRENTLY VISIBLE IN X-RAY, EUV, OR INFRARED WAVELENGTHS.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY SHOULD REMAIN AT VERY LOW LEVELS FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 06-2100Z to 07-2100Z
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS QUIET TO UNSETTLED DURING THE PERIOD.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS FORECAST TO BE QUIET TO SLIGHTLY UNSETTLED FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.
