Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 161 Issued at 2200Z on 09 Jun 2024

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 08-2100Z to 09-2100Z

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 09/0701Z from Region 3697 (S19W86). There are currently 10 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be moderate with a chance for X-class flares on days one and two (10 Jun, 11 Jun) and expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares and a slight chance for an X-class flare on day three (12 Jun).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 08-2100Z to 09-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 550 km/s at 08/2142Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 09/1657Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -4 nT at 09/1219Z. Protons greater than 10 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 128 pfu at 08/2120Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 119 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to major storm levels on day one (10 Jun), quiet to minor storm levels on day two (11 Jun) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (12 Jun). Protons are expected to cross threshold on day one (10 Jun), have a chance of crossing threshold on day two (11 Jun) and have a slight chance of crossing threshold on day three (12 Jun).
