:Product: 0102RSGA.txt :Issued: 2011 Jan 02 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 002 Issued at 2200Z on 02 Jan 2011 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 01/2100Z to 02/2100Z: Solar activity remained at very low levels. Region 1140 (N32E40) was the sole source of todays occasional B-class flares. It remained an H-type group with no significant changes noted. Region 1141 (N34W39) decayed to a B-type group. Region 1142 (S12E21) showed a minor increase in area and remained a D-type group with a beta magnetic configuration. No new regions were numbered. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at very low to low levels during the period (03 - 05 January) with a chance for an isolated C-class flare. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 01/2100Z to 02/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet through the period (03 - 05 January). III.
