:Product: 0701RSGA.txt :Issued: 2006 Jul 01 2203 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 182 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Jul 2006 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: Solar activity continues at very low levels. Region 898 (S06E26) produced occasional B-class flares including a B9.8 at 01/0726Z. Region 897 (N06W12) continues to decay. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to continue at very low levels with a small chance for a C-class flare from Region 898. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet with isolated unsettled periods. Solar wind speed slowly declined, ending the period near 400 km/s. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to range from quiet to minor storm levels over the next three days. Expect quiet conditions on 02 July. A recurrent high speed coronal hole stream is expected to rotate into a geoeffective position on 03 July and produce occasional active to minor storm periods on both 03 and 04 July. III.
