:Product: 0908RSGA.txt :Issued: 2006 Sep 08 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 251 Issued at 2200Z on 08 Sep 2006 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. Region 909 (S09W04) produced a long duration B5 event at 08/1058 UTC. LASCO imagery observed a faint halo CME, however, data was too scarce to be sure about the event. There were three low level B-class flares reported during the observed period, but no direct correlation can be made with the CME activity. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a chance for an isolated C-class event from Region 909. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominately quiet. Quiet to unsettled conditions are possible for 11 September due to a recurrent coronal hole. III.
