Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 182 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Jul 2023

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30-2100Z to 01-2100Z

Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C4 event observed at 01/1256Z. There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares and a slight chance for an X-class flare on days one, two, and three (02 Jul, 03 Jul, 04 Jul).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30-2100Z to 01-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 513 km/s at 01/0042Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 30/2217Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -3 nT at 01/0110Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 2570 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one and three (02 Jul, 04 Jul) and quiet levels on day two (03 Jul). Protons have a slight chance of crossing threshold on days one, two, and three (02 Jul, 03 Jul, 04 Jul).
