Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 270 Issued at 2200Z on 27 Sep 2021IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 26-2100Z to 27-2100Z Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24
hours. There are currently 2 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low
with a chance for a C-class flares on day one (28 Sep) and expected to
be very low with a slight chance for a C-class flare on days two and
three (29 Sep, 30 Sep).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 26-2100Z to 27-2100Z
The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar
wind speed reached a peak of 404 km/s at 27/2059Z. Total IMF reached 14
nT at 27/1902Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at
27/0145Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached
a peak level of 696 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet to major storm levels on day one (28 Sep), quiet to minor
storm levels on day two (29 Sep) and quiet to unsettled levels on day
three (30 Sep).
