:Product: 0714RSGA.txt :Issued: 2013 Jul 14 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 195 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Jul 2013 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C1 event observed at 14/1700Z from Region 1785 (S11W97). There are currently 6 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a chance for a C-class flares on days one, two, and three (15 Jul, 16 Jul, 17 Jul). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 439 km/s at 13/2350Z. Total IMF reached 13 nT at 13/2100Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -10 nT at 14/1903Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 4433 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to active levels on day one (15 Jul) and quiet to unsettled levels on days two and three (16 Jul, 17 Jul). III.
