Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 319 Issued at 2200Z on 15 Nov 2025

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 14-2100Z to 15-2100Z

Solar activity has been at moderate 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 moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on days one and two (16 Nov, 17 Nov) and expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares on day three (18 Nov).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 14-2100Z to 15-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 648 km/s at 15/0946Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 14/2213Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 15/1718Z. Protons greater than 10 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 4 pfu at 15/0120Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 571 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to minor storm levels on day one (16 Nov), unsettled to minor storm levels on day two (17 Nov) and quiet to active levels on day three (18 Nov). Protons greater than 10 Mev have a slight chance of crossing threshold on day one (16 Nov) and have a slight chance of crossing threshold on day two (17 Nov).
