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 025 Issued at 2200Z on 25 Jan 2005

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z

Solar activity was at very low levels. Region 727 (S09E25) underwent decay today and appears to be a simple beta magnetic spot complex. With the exception of a few low level B-class flares the solar disk and limb were fairly quiescent today. Region 728 (S14E66) was numbered today.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be at very low to low levels. An isolated C-class flare is possible from Region 727.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels today. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels. Isolated active periods may be observed in the nighttime sectors at the higher latitudes throughout the reporting period.
