:Product: 0929RSGA.txt :Issued: 2010 Sep 29 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 272 Issued at 2200Z on 29 Sep 2010 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 28/2100Z to 29/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Region 1110 (N19W45) produced a C2/Sf flare at 28/2211Z. This region is a D-type group with a beta magnetic configuration. Region 1109 (N22W24) remains an E-type group with a beta magnetic configuration. New Region 1111 (N23E55) was numbered today. The 10cm solar flux has shown a slight rise in background levels for 29 September. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a C-class event likely. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 28/2100Z to 29/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominantly quiet for the next three days (30 September - 02 October). III.
