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 030 Issued at 2200Z on 30 Jan 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 29-2100Z to 30-2100Z

Solar activity has been low. Region 940 (S04E21) produced two C-class flares during the past 24 hours. Region 941 (S06E56) has remained quiescent.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low. There is a slight chance for an M-class event from Region 940.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 29-2100Z to 30-2100Z
The geomagnetic field ranged from unsettled to minor storm levels. Solar wind speed remains elevated at approximately 650 km/s due to the coronal hole high speed stream. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be unsettled to active with a chance for minor storm periods on 31 January. Mostly unsettled conditions with isolated active periods are expected on 01-02 February.
