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 200 Issued at 2200Z on 19 Jul 2011IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z Solar activity was very low. There were seven numbered
active regions on the disk today, but all remain quiet and stable.
The two most significant, Region 1257 (N20W83) and Region 1254
(S22W04) were classified as Dso Beta groups, producing only a few
weak B-class events.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very
low to low with a chance for a C-class flare over the next 3 days
(20-22 July).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18-2100Z to 19-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet to unsettled with the
exception of an isolated period of active conditions at mid
latitudes and a minor storm at high latitudes between 19/15Z-19/18Z.
This activity was associated with the onset of coronal hole high
speed stream effects.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
expected to remain at mostly unsettled to active levels with and
isolated minor storm possible on days 1 and 2 (20-21 July) as the
result of coronal hole high speed stream effects. Conditions should
decrease to primarily unsettled levels with the chance for isolated
active periods on day 3 (22 July), as coronal hole effects begin to
decline.
