:Product: 0119RSGA.txt :Issued: 2009 Jan 19 2200 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 019 Issued at 2200Z on 19 Jan 2009 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 18/2100Z to 19/2100Z: Solar activity remained very low. Ephemeral Region 1011 (S12W25) emerged early in the period and was spotless by days end. It sported a few penumbraless spots at its peak and old Cycle 23 magnetic polarity. Little else of significance occurred or was noted. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to stay very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18/2100Z to 19/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet to active. A recurrent high-speed solar wind stream brought short-lived active conditions to all latitudes early in the day. The disturbance quickly waned, and quiet conditions prevailed by the end of the interval. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet throughout the forecast period. III.
