Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 252 Issued at 2200Z on 09 Sep 2010
IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from  08/2100Z
to 09/2100Z:  Solar activity has been low. Region 1105 (N19W90)
produced a long duration C3 x-ray event at 08/2333Z with an
associated west limb CME. Observations from the SOHO/LASCO C2 and C3
imagery indicates the CME is not earth directed.
IB.  Solar Activity Forecast:  Solar activity is expected to be very
low for the next three days (10-12 September).
IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 08/2100Z to 09/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field has been quiet to unsettled. Solar wind
velocities, as measured at the ACE spacecraft, indicated a solar
wind speed enhancement to around 450 km/s during the period.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast:  The geomagnetic field is
expected to be predominately quiet on days one and two (10-11
September). Quiet to unsettled conditions, with a slight chance for
an isolated active period, is expected for day three (12 September),
as a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream becomes geoeffective.
