:Product: 20011111RSGA.txt :Issued: 2001 Nov 11 2200 UTC # Prepared jointly by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, # Space Environment Center and the U.S. Air Force. # Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity SDF Number 315 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Nov 2001 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10/2100Z to 11/2100Z: Solar activity was moderate, due to a single M-class event during the period. Region 9690 (S18W09) produced an M1/Sf flare at 11/1103 UTC. Region 9690 remains a relatively large sunspot group with a complex beta-gamma-delta magnetic configuration. This region remained active through out the period, producing numerous C-class flares and nearly continuous optical flaring. Spotless Region 9686 (N15W78) produced a C5/Sf flare at 11/0035 UTC. Region 9697 (N11E76) was numbered today. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at mostly moderate levels with the chance of an isolated major flare from Region 9690. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10/2100Z to 11/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was a mostly quiet levels with isolated unsettled conditions. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to continue to be at quiet to unsettled conditions. There will be a slight chance for a proton flare during the forecast period. III.
