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 203 Issued at 2200Z on 22 Jul 2001

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 21-2100Z to 22-2100Z

Solar activity was very low. X-ray emission remained below C-level during the past 24 hours. Region 9543 (S22W19) remains the largest group on the disk and showed slight growth in some of the middle spots. Region 9545 (N09W57) showed some growth but was very stable and quiet.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low for the next three days. There is, however, a very slight chance for an isolated M-class event from Region 9543.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 21-2100Z to 22-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled during the past 24 hours. The greater than 2 MeV electron fluxes declined from high levels at 21/2325 UTC and remained below this threshold for the remainder of the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled for the next 24 hours. A slight increase to unsettled with a possibility for isolated active periods is predicted for the second and third days due to coronal hole effects.
