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 162 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Jun 2002

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z

Solar activity was at low levels. Only a few small C-class flares occurred, which were mostly associated with Region 9987 (S15W43). This region has continued to show slow growth in magnetic complexity and penumbral coverage. An eruptive prominence was observed on the west limb at 11/1125 UTC. SOHO/LASCO depicted a weak CME that does not appear to be earth directed. No new regions were numbered today.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be at low levels. Region 9987 remains capable of producing isolated low level M-class flares.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z
The geomagnetic field activity was at quiet to unsettled levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels throughout the forecast period.
