:Product: 1206RSGA.txt :Issued: 2021 Dec 06 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 340 Issued at 2200Z on 06 Dec 2021 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 05/2100Z to 06/2100Z: 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 06/0622Z from Region 2902 (N13W89). There are currently 1 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a slight chance for a C-class flare on day one (07 Dec) and expected to be very low on days two and three (08 Dec, 09 Dec). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 05/2100Z to 06/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 534 km/s at 05/2324Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 06/1552Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 05/2212Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 2152 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on day one (07 Dec) and quiet levels on days two and three (08 Dec, 09 Dec). III.
