:Product: 1104RSGA.txt :Issued: 2013 Nov 04 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 308 Issued at 2200Z on 04 Nov 2013 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C3 event observed at 04/0544Z from Region 1884 (S12W39). There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares and a slight chance for an X-class flare on days one, two, and three (05 Nov, 06 Nov, 07 Nov). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 435 km/s at 04/1326Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 03/2101Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 04/1554Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 124 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on day one (05 Nov) and quiet to unsettled levels on days two and three (06 Nov, 07 Nov). III.
