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 192 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Jul 2010

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z

Solar activity was very low. Region 1087 (N19E44), a beta magnetic classification, produced several B-class flares during the past 24 hours. The region continues to show a slight growth in white light areal coverage and sunspot count.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low to low. A chance for a C-class flare and slight chance for a M-class event is possible from Region 1087.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels today.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominantly quiet for day one (12 July). Unsettled conditions with isolated active levels are expected for days two and three (13-14 July) due to a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream.
