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 243 Issued at 2200Z on 31 Aug 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30-2100Z to 31-2100Z

Solar activity was very low. Three B-class flares were observed during the past 24 hours.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to remain very low for the next three days (1 September - 3 September)
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30-2100Z to 31-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux reached high levels again today.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to become unsettled to active on day 1 (1 September) as a recurrent coronal hole becomes geoeffective. Mostly unsettled conditions are expected on days 2 through 3 (2 September - 3 September).
