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 172 Issued at 2200Z on 21 Jun 2005

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z

Solar activity was low. Region 780 (S07E12) produced an impulsive C2.1/Sf at 1804 UTC. No significant development was observed on active regions and no new regions were numbered.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low to low. Regions 779 (S16W71) and 780 may produce C-class flares.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20-2100Z to 21-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit remained above high levels throughout the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet for the next two days. Active and isolated minor storm conditions are possible on day three (24 June) as a coronal hole high speed solar wind stream becomes geoeffective.
