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 310 Issued at 2200Z on 06 Nov 2006IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 05-2100Z to 06-2100Z Solar activity was low. Region 921 (S06W39) produced a
long duration C2 flare at 06/1051Z. A C8 flare occurred at
06/1746Z, with an associated Type II radio sweep and tenflare.
SOHO/LASCO C2 imagery indicates an associated CME from the east limb
at 06/1854Z. A new CME-producing active region is just starting to
rotate onto the east limb as seen on EIT/SXI imagery.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very
low to low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 05-2100Z to 06-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet on 07-08 November. Quiet to active conditions
are expected on 9 November as a recurrent coronal hole rotates into
a geoeffective position.
