:Product: 0206RSGA.txt :Issued: 2010 Feb 06 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 037 Issued at 2200Z on 06 Feb 2010 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 05/2100Z to 06/2100Z: Solar activity was moderate. A new region emerged at a rapid pace today and was numbered Region 1045 (N24E15). The region produced several C-class events and a M2/Sn event at 06/1859Z. The region has grown to around 290 millionths of white light area coverage with a magnetic beta-gamma configuration and a possible delta magnetic configuration within its interior spots. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a chance for an M-class event. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 05/2100Z to 06/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be unsettled with isolated active conditions, and a slight chance for isolated minor storming for the next three days (07-09 February). The increase in activity is expected due to CME activity from 02-03 February and a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream. III.
