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 310 Issued at 2200Z on 06 Nov 2009

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 05-2100Z to 06-2100Z

Solar activity was very low. Region 1030 (N24W07) was a simple beta group with 6 spots. No flares were observed.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 05-2100Z to 06-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be quiet on day one (07 November). Quiet to unsettled levels, with a slight chance for active conditions at high latitudes, are expected on day two (08 November) in response to a weak recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream. Activity is expected to decrease to quiet levels on day three (09 November).
