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 191 Issued at 2200Z on 10 Jul 2006

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 09-2100Z to 10-2100Z

Solar activity was very low.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be very low to low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 09-2100Z to 10-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. A sudden impulse was observed at the boulder magnetometer at 09/2137 UTC with a 48 nT deviation. This resulted in the only active period between 09/2100 - 2400 UTC. Activity was the result of CME activity from 06 July.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled on 11 July. On 12 July, a recurrent coronal hole stream is expected to cause unsettled to active conditions with minor storm periods possible. On 13 July, conditions are expected to be mostly unsettled.
