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 336 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Dec 2000

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

Solar activity was low. Isolated C-class flares occurred, with Regions 9246 (S12E04), 9242 (N21W28), and 9240 (N09W43) contributing. The nine spot groups on the disk were stable or declining, as little of significance occurred. There was limb activity associated with now-departed Region 9236 (N20). The East Limb was quiet.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low to moderate.
