:Product: 0731RSGA.txt :Issued: 2009 Jul 31 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 212 Issued at 2200Z on 31 Jul 2009 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30/2100Z to 31/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed during the past 24 hours. The solar disk remains spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30/2100Z to 31/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels. Solar wind observations from the ACE spacecraft indicted the presence of a coronal hole high speed stream. Velocities increased from around 340 km/s to 420 km/s, with +/- 5nT fluctuations in the IMF Bz. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels with a chance for isolated active conditions for day one (01 August). Predominantly quiet conditions are expected for days two and three (02-03 August). III. Event Probabilities 01 Aug-03 Aug Class M 01/01/01 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF Green IV.
