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 2004

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

Solar activity was very low. New Region 644 (N11E69) rotated into view as a single H-type sunspot. Region 645 (N12W11) emerged on the disk. Another new region, not yet numbered, is rotating onto the disk near southeast 13. This region is fairly bright in X-rays and appears to have raised the background x-ray flux from B1 to about B4.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low. The chance of a small M-class flare is expected to increase as the new east limb regions fully rotate onto the disk.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 09-2100Z to 10-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled.
