:Product: 1120RSGA.txt :Issued: 2013 Nov 20 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 324 Issued at 2200Z on 20 Nov 2013 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C6 event observed at 20/1722Z. There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a slight chance for an M-class flare on days one, two, and three (21 Nov, 22 Nov, 23 Nov). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: 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 423 km/s at 20/0630Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at 20/0308Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -4 nT at 20/0039Z. Protons greater than 10 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 3 pfu at 19/2105Z. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on days one, two, and three (21 Nov, 22 Nov, 23 Nov). III.
