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 211 Issued at 2200Z on 30 Jul 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 29-2100Z to 30-2100Z

Solar activity was very low. An asymmetric full halo CME was observed in LASCO data starting at approximately 30/0454Z. This CME is believed to be a backsided event.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 29-2100Z to 30-2100Z
The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to active due to a geoeffective coronal hole. Solar wind speed remains elevated at approximately 600 km/s at time of issue.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled with a chance for active periods for the next two days (31 July - 01 August) due to continued coronal hole effects. Expect mostly quiet conditions on 02 August.
III. Event Probabilities 31 Jul to 02 Aug
