Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 236 Issued at 2200Z on 24 Aug 2011
IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from  23/2100Z
to 24/2100Z:  Solar activity was low. The largest event in the last
24 hours was a C1/Sf event that originated from Region 1271 (N17W42)
at 24/1633Z. This region has shown separation and penumbral decay in
its intermediate spots. A back-sided, partial halo CME was observed
at 24/0027Z. All other numbered regions on the disk showed various
amounts of decay.
IB.  Solar Activity Forecast:  Solar activity is expected to be very
low to low with a slight chance for an M-class event from Region
1271 for the next three days (25-27 August).
IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 23/2100Z to 24/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast:  The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet for the next two days (25-26 August). Activity
is expected to increase to quiet to unsettled on day three (27
August) due to a recurring coronal hole.
