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.

SDF Number 315 Issued at 2200Z on 10 NOV 1996

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 09-2100Z to 10-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS VERY LOW. A B8 X-RAY FLARE OCCURRED AT 09/2323Z. THIS FLARE WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG TYPE II RADIO SWEEP AND MINOR DISCRETE FREQUENCY OUTPUT. NO OPTICAL REPORTS WERE RECEIVED BUT THE SOURCE OF THIS SMALL EVENT IS BELIEVED TO BE REGION 7993 (S02E51). NEW REGION 7994 (S12E33) EMERGED ON THE DISK AND IS GROWING SLOWLY.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE VERY LOW. THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE OF A C-CLASS FLARE.
