:Product: 1010RSGA.txt :Issued: 2010 Oct 10 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 283 Issued at 2200Z on 10 Oct 2010 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 09/2100Z to 10/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. Region 1112 (S18E54) produced a few moderate level B-class flares during the period. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at predominately very low levels with a slight chance for C-class activity for the next three days (11 - 13 October). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 09/2100Z to 10/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled with isolated active levels at high latitudes on days one and two (11 - 12 October). This activity is due to a small, geoeffective coronal hole coupled with glancing blow effects from the 06 October full-halo CME. Day three (13 October) will see a return to mostly quiet conditions.
