Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 11 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Jan 2024IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24
hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M1 event observed at
10/2328Z from Region 3538 (N20W81). There are currently 9 numbered
sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low with
a chance for M-class flares on days one, two, and three (12 Jan, 13 Jan,
14 Jan).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z

The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet levels on days one and three (12 Jan, 14 Jan) and quiet
to unsettled levels on day two (13 Jan).
