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 331 Issued at 2200Z on 27 Nov 2006IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 26-2100Z to 27-2100Z Solar activity was at very low levels today. Region
926 (S08E47) developed several umbra in the trailing portion of
sunspot cluster and is now classified a magnetic beta group. Region
927 (N08E59) was numbered today and appears to be a rapidly
developing emerging flux region. Several B-class flares were
attributed to this region today.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to remain
at low levels. There is a slight chance for an isolated C-class
flare from Region 926.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 26-2100Z to 27-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels. The solar
wind speed has steadily decreased to less than 550 km/sec during the
period as the coronal hole moves out of geoeffective position. The
greater than 2 electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high
levels again today.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels throughout the period.
