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 192 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Jul 2005

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z

Solar activity was low. Region 786 (N09W57) produced a C8 flare at 11/1508 UTC and has a Beta-Gamma-Delta magnetic classification. Region 789 (N16W12) continued to decay and is now an Eao Beta group.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low. There is a chance for an M-class event from Region 786.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z
The geomagnetic field ranged from unsettled to minor storm levels. Sustained southward Bz following the shock arrival on 09 July resulted in minor storming during the period 0600 - 0900 UTC. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at unsettled to active levels with a chance for isolated minor storm conditions on 12 July due to the arrival of a transient from the CME associated with the M2 flare on 09 July. Predominantly unsettled conditions are expected on 13 and 14 July.
