Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 316 Issued at 2200Z on 12 Nov 2025

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 11-2100Z to 12-2100Z

Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 8 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is likely to be high on days one, two, and three (13 Nov, 14 Nov, 15 Nov).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 11-2100Z to 12-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at unsettled to severe storm levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 969 km/s at 12/1946Z. Total IMF reached 61 nT at 12/0036Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -55 nT at 11/2357Z. Protons greater than 10 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 1456 pfu at 12/0215Z. Protons greater than 100 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 37 pfu at 12/0150Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit appeared to be contaminated.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at active to severe storm levels on day one (13 Nov), unsettled to minor storm levels on day two (14 Nov) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (15 Nov). Protons are expected to cross threshold on day one (13 Nov), are expected to cross threshold on day two (14 Nov) and are likely to cross threshold on day three (15 Nov).
