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 248 Issued at 2200Z on 05 Sep 2010IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04-2100Z to 05-2100Z Solar activity was very low. Regions 1101 (N13W88) and
1105 (N19W52) produced several B-class events during the period.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is forecast to be low
for the next 3 days (6-8 September) with a chance for C-class
events and a slight chance for M-class events.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04-2100Z to 05-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux
at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels during the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
forecast to range from quiet to active conditions for days 1-2
(06-07 September). Conditions are forecast to return to quiet
conditions on day 3 (08 September).
