Joint USAF/NOAA Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast
SDF Number 210 Issued at 2200Z on 29 Jul 2017

IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 28/2100Z to
29/2100Z: Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24
hours. There are currently 1 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 and a slight chance for an M-class
flare on day one (30 Jul) and likely to be low with a slight chance for
an M-class flare on days two and three (31 Jul, 01 Aug).

IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 28/2100Z to 29/2100Z: The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed
reached a peak of 459 km/s at 29/1813Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at
29/0024Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -3 nT at
29/0816Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a
peak level of 8287 pfu.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet levels on day one (30 Jul), quiet to active levels on day
two (31 Jul) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (01 Aug).
