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 190 Issued at 2200Z on 09 Jul 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 08-2100Z to 09-2100Z

Solar activity was low. Region 963 (S07E54) has produced two C-class flares and numerous B-class flares. Region 963 grew slowly in size and complexity during the past 24 hours and is now classified as a D-type group with 12 spots and a beta-gamma magnetic configuration.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to remain low, with a slight chance for an isolated M-class flare from Region 963.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 08-2100Z to 09-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to become unsettled with a chance for active periods late on day one (10 Jun) continuing through day two (11 Jun) in response to a recurrent coronal hole. Conditions should decline to quiet to unsettled on day three (12 Jun).
