:Product: 0626RSGA.txt :Issued: 2023 Jun 26 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 177 Issued at 2200Z on 26 Jun 2023 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 25/2100Z to 26/2100Z: Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M1 event observed at 26/1622Z from Region 3340 (N20W45). There are currently 10 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 days one, two, and three (27 Jun, 28 Jun, 29 Jun). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 25/2100Z to 26/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 646 km/s at 25/2210Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 25/2108Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 26/1350Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 583 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to active levels on day one (27 Jun), quiet to unsettled levels on day two (28 Jun) and quiet levels on day three (29 Jun).
