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 257 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Sep 2006

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z

Solar activity was low. Region 909 (S08W95) produced a C1 flare at 14/0735Z, along with multiple B-class flares, during the past 24 hours. Region 908 (S13W47) produced two B-class flares.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low. There is a slight chance for an isolated C-class event.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominantly quiet on 15 Sep. Quiet to unsettled conditions, with isolated active periods are expected for 16-17 Sep, as a coronal hole high speed stream moves into geoeffective position.
