Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 103 Issued at 2200Z on 13 Apr 2010
IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from  12/2100Z
to 13/2100Z:  Solar activity was very low.  A single B-class flare
was observed at 0443Z from Region 1062 (S18W20).  Region 1062 has
grown in size but is still a small bipolar sunspot group.  A
filament eruption with an associated partial-halo CME (plane-of-sky
speed 540 km/s) was observed on the northwest limb at approximately
0908Z.
IB.  Solar Activity Forecast:  Solar activity is expected to be very
low for the next three days (14-16 April) with a slight chance for
an isolated C-class event.
IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 12/2100Z to 13/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was quiet during the last 24 hours.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast:  The geomagnetic field is
expected to remain quiet for days one and two (14-15 April). 
Activity is expected to be generally unsettled with a chance for an
active period on day three (16 April) due to the arrival of the
partial-halo CME observed today.
