:Product: 0803RSGA.txt :Issued: 2022 Aug 03 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 215 Issued at 2200Z on 03 Aug 2022 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 02/2100Z to 03/2100Z: 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 03/1708Z from Region 3068 (S15W24). There are currently 2 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 days one, two, and three (04 Aug, 05 Aug, 06 Aug). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 02/2100Z to 03/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 559 km/s at 03/0201Z. Total IMF reached 8 nT at 02/2225Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 02/2146Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 348 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on day one (04 Aug) and quiet levels on days two and three (05 Aug, 06 Aug). III.
