SDF Number 186 Issued at 2200Z on 05 Jul 2022

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04-2100Z to 05-2100Z

Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C1 event observed at 05/1057Z. There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is likely to be low with a slight chance for an M-class flare on days one, two, and three (06 Jul, 07 Jul, 08 Jul).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04-2100Z to 05-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 448 km/s at 04/2322Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at 04/2104Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -3 nT at 04/2116Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 335 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at unsettled to minor storm levels on day one (06 Jul), quiet to active levels on day two (07 Jul) and quiet levels on day three (08 Jul).
