:Product: 1114RSGA.txt :Issued: 2013 Nov 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 318 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Nov 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 C4 event observed at 14/0800Z from Region 1897 (S21E26). There are currently 8 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 day one (15 Nov) and expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares on days two and three (16 Nov, 17 Nov). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: 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 405 km/s at 14/1512Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 475 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on day one (15 Nov), quiet to unsettled levels on day two (16 Nov) and quiet to active levels on day three (17 Nov). Protons greater than 10 Mev have a slight chance of crossing threshold on day one (15 Nov). III. Event probabilities 15 Nov-17 Nov Class M 50/40/40 Class X 15/05/05 Proton 20/05/05 PCAF green IV.
