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 115 Issued at 2200Z on 25 Apr 2010IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed
during the last 24 hours and the disk remained spotless.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to remain
very low for the next three days (26-28 April).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24-2100Z to 25-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet during the last 24 hours.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is
expected to be mostly quiet for day 1 (26 April) and quiet to
unsettled with isolated active periods for day 2 (27 April) due to
the arrival of a weak CME observed on 22 April and a recurrent
coronal hole high speed stream expected to rotate into a
geoeffective position. Quiet to unsettled conditions are expected
for day three (28 April) as the coronal hole high speed stream is
expected to persist.
