:Product: 0722RSGA.txt :Issued: 2006 Jul 22 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 203 Issued at 2200Z on 22 Jul 2006 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 21/2100Z to 22/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. New Region 901 (N06E70) produced several B-class flares. Region 900 (S06W65) is currently spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to continue at very low levels. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 21/2100Z to 22/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet on 23 July. Quiet to active levels are expected on 24-25 July, with possible minor storm conditions at high latitudes. The elevated conditions are due to the arrival of a CME from 20 July and a recurrent coronal hole moving into geoeffective position. III.
