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 196 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Jul 2008IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z Solar activity was very low. The visible disk remained
spotless.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to remain
very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13-2100Z to 14-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled. The recurrent coronal
hole high speed stream remained geoeffective. Solar wind speed
measured at the ACE spacecraft ranged from approximately 650 km/s to
730 km/s.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
expected to be unsettled on Day 1 (15 July), becoming quiet on Day 2
(16 July). Activity is expected to be quiet to unsettled on Day 3
(17 July).
