Solar activity report
Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity 2024 Jun 04 2200 UTCPrepared by the NOAA © SWPC and processed by SpaceWeatherLive.com
Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 156 Issued at 2200Z on 04 Jun 2024IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 03-2100Z to 04-2100Z Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24
hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M2 event observed at
04/0631Z from Region 3697 (S18W20). There are currently 12 numbered
sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is likely to be moderate
with a chance for X-class flares on days one and two (05 Jun, 06 Jun)
and likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on
day three (07 Jun).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 03-2100Z to 04-2100Z
The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet to minor storm levels for the past 24 hours.
Solar wind speed reached a peak of 516 km/s at 04/0012Z. Total IMF
reached 18 nT at 03/2148Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached
-10 nT at 04/0010Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous
orbit reached a peak level of 115 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet to active levels on day one (05 Jun) and quiet levels on
days two and three (06 Jun, 07 Jun). Protons have a slight chance of
crossing threshold on day one (05 Jun) and have a chance of crossing
threshold on days two and three (06 Jun, 07 Jun).
