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 162 Issued at 2200Z on 11 JUN 1998

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

SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS LOW TO MODERATE. A LONG DURATION C1 X-RAY EVENT OCCURRED AT 11/0014UT AND A LONG DURATION M1 X-RAY EVENT OCCURRED AT 11/1027UT. BOTH ARE BELIEVED TO HAVE ORIGINATED FROM THE NE LIMB IN CONJUNCTION WITH X-RAY LOOPS VISIBLE IN THE LASCO/EIT IMAGES.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW TO MODERATE WITH A POSSIBLE INCREASE IN ACTIVITY ON 12 JUN WHEN OLD REGION 8226 (N18 L-210) IS DUE TO RETURN. THAT REGION COULD POSSIBLY BE THE SOURCE OF THE X-RAY LOOPS ON THE NE LIMB.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z
GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS QUIET TO ACTIVE, WITH ONLY ONE ACTIVE PERIOD (K=4) OCCURRING 10/2100-2400UT.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO BE QUIET TO UNSETTLED.
