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 176 Issued at 2200Z on 25 JUN 1998

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z

SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS LOW. 3 NEW NUMBERED REGIONS WERE ADDED: 8254 (N23W67), 8255 (S23E51), AND 8256 (S26E68). 8254 AND 8256 ARE SINGLE SPOT AXX GROUPS WHILE 8255 IS A 2 SPOT BXO GROUP. THE MOST ACTIVE REGION IS 8253 (N18E39), WHICH IS A 7 SPOT DSC, BETA-GAMMA GROUP. 8253 PRODUCED SEVERAL B-CLASS FLARES, 2 C-CLASS, AND 2 OPTICAL SUB FLARES. THE REST OF THE DISK IS FAIRLY QUIET AND STABLE.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE LOW TO MODERATE WITH CONTINUED C-CLASS AND POSSIBLE ISOLATED M-CLASS FLARES FROM REGION 8253.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD HAS BEEN QUIET TO ACTIVE.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO BE QUIET TO ACTIVE.
