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 032 Issued at 2200Z on 01 FEB 2000

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 31-2100Z to 01-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY REMAINED LOW. A SINGLE C-CLASS X-RAY FLARE WAS DETECTED DURING THE PERIOD. MINOR GROWTH WAS NOTED IN REGIONS 8851 (N27E16) AND 8852 (N10E00). ALL THE VISIBLE REGIONS WERE SMALL AND SIMPLY-STRUCTURED INCLUDING NEW REGIONS 8853 (S10E64) AND 8854 (S33E81).
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN AT LOW LEVELS WITH ISOLATED C-CLASS FLARES POSSIBLE FROM REGIONS 8851 AND 8852.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 31-2100Z to 01-2100Z
GEOMAGNETIC FIELD ACTIVITY RANGED FROM QUIET TO UNSETTLED LEVELS. THE GREATER THAN 2 MEV ELECTRON FLUX AT GEOSYNCHONOUS ORBIT REMAINED AT MODERATE TO HIGH LEVELS.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
GEOMAGNETIC FIELD ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN AT QUIET TO UNSETTLED LEVELS. THE GREATER THAN 2 MEV ELECTRON FLUX AT GEOSYNCHRONOUS ORBIT IS EXPECTED TO DECLINE TO NORMAL TO MODERATE LEVELS DURING THE FINAL TWO DAYS OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.
