:Product: 1115RSGA.txt :Issued: 2006 Nov 15 2207 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 319 Issued at 2200Z on 15 Nov 2006 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Region 924 (S08E28) produced a C1 flare on 15/1901Z. This region was in decay, but new trailer sunspots emerged late in the period. Region 923 (S05W20) still maintains considerable size, but is in a slow decay phase. Region 925 (S05E38) is a small, simple beta group, which exhibited slight growth. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low to very low. Regions 923 and 924 have potential for isolated C-class activity. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet with isolated unsettled periods. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels again today. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to range from quiet to active. A recurrent high speed stream is expected to produce occasional unsettled to active periods over the next thee days. III.
