Joint USAF/NOAA Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast
SDF Number 352 Issued at 2200Z on 17 Dec 2012
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 16/2100Z to
17/2100Z: 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
17/0220Z from Region 1629 (N13W88). There are currently 5 numbered
sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at low
levels with a slight chance for M-class flares on days one, two, and
three (18 Dec, 19 Dec, 20 Dec).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 16/2100Z to 17/2100Z: The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet to active levels for the past 24 hours. Solar
wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of
532 km/s at 17/1237Z. Total IMF reached 9.6 nT at 17/0740Z. The maximum
southward component of Bz reached -7.4 nT at 17/1102Z. Electrons greater
than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 155 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet to active levels on day one (18 Dec) and a return to
predominantly quiet levels for days two and three (19 Dec and 20 Dec).
