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 192 Issued at 2200Z on 10 JUL 2000

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 09-2100Z to 10-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS MODERATE. SEVERAL REGIONS PRODUCED M-CLASS EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD. REGION 9077 (N16E44) PRODUCED A LONG DURATION M1/SF AT 10/1056Z AND ANOTHER M1/1N AT 10/1426Z. THIS REGION CONTINUES TO BE THE LARGEST REGION ON THE DISK AND HAS DEVELOPED A DELTA CONFIGURATION SINCE YESTERDAY. REGION 9069 (S17W39) PRODUCED AN M1/1N AT 10/1838Z AND SPOTLESS REGION 9066 (N12W68) PRODUCED AN M1/SF AT 10/2005Z. NEW REGION 9080 (N25E68) WAS NUMBERED EARLY IN THE PERIOD TODAY.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW TO MODERATE. REGIONS 9070 AND 9077 CONTINUE TO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE AN ISOLATED X-CLASS FLARE.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 09-2100Z to 10-2100Z
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS QUIET TO ACTIVE. ACTIVE CONDITIONS FOLLOWED A WEAK SHOCK OBSERVED FROM THE ACE SPACECRAFT DATA AT 10/0558Z.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO BE AT ACTIVE LEVELS THE FIRST DAY OF THE PERIOD. UNSETTLED TO ACTIVE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THE SECOND AND THIRD DAY OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.
