:Product: 0125RSGA.txt :Issued: 2013 Jan 25 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 Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast SDF Number 25 Issued at 2200Z on 25 Jan 2013 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z: Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 3 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at very low with a chance for C-class flares on days one, two, and three (26 Jan, 27 Jan, 28 Jan). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed at the ACE spacecraft reached a peak of 423 km/s at 25/1918Z. Total IMF reached 17.7 nT at 25/1944Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -4.3 nT at 25/0147Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 531 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels for the next three days (26 Jan, 27 Jan, 28 Jan). III.
