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 194 Issued at 2200Z on 13 Jul 2001

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 12-2100Z to 13-2100Z

Solar activity was at very low conditions. Regions 9533 (S09W26) and 9539 (S19E11) produced sporadic minor activity during the period. Two new regions were numbered: 9540 (N13E42) and 9541 (N16E69). Overall, the sun was mostly quiet and stable.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to continue to be very low to low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 12-2100Z to 13-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled conditions.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at mostly quiet to unsettled conditions. Isolated active conditions may be possible, starting on the third day, due to a potentially favorably positioned coronal hole.
