:Product: 0620RSGA.txt :Issued: 2024 Jun 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 172 Issued at 2200Z on 20 Jun 2024 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: 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 20/1518Z from Region 3719 (S13E55). There are currently 6 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on days one, two, and three (21 Jun, 22 Jun, 23 Jun). 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 reached a peak of 527 km/s at 19/2106Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at 20/1747Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -3 nT at 20/0624Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 560 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one and three (21 Jun, 23 Jun) and quiet to active levels on day two (22 Jun). III.
