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 325 Issued at 2200Z on 21 Nov 2011IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z Solar activity was low. Region 1354 (S15E17) and Region
1356 (N15E55) each produced a few low-level C-class events. Region
1354 showed slight decay in its trailer spots and is considered a
Dso-type spot group with a beta-gamma magnetic configuration. Region
1356 grew significantly in areal coverage as it rotated farther onto
the visible disk and is an Ehc-beta type group.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low
throughout the period (22-24 November) with a chance for M-class
activity from Regions 1354 and 1356.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet throughout the period (22-24 November).
