:Product: 1022RSGA.txt :Issued: 2007 Oct 22 2202 UTC # Prepared jointly by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, # Space Weather Prediction Center and the U.S. Air Force. # Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity SDF Number 295 Issued at 2200Z on 22 Oct 2007 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 21/2100Z to 22/2100Z: Solar activity was at very low levels. The visible solar disk remains 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 at quiet levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels again today. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at mostly quiet levels on 23 October. Activity is anticipated to increase to unsettled to active levels late on 24 October and continue through the forecast period. Minor storm periods at middle latitudes and major storm levels at high latitudes are possible on 24 and 25 October due to a coronal hole high speed stream. III.
