Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 225 Issued at 2200Z on 12 Aug 2012
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 11/2100Z
to 12/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. Region 1542 (S13W04)
produced a B8/Sf at 12/1344Z, and several other Sf optical flares
throughout the period. Region 1543 (N20E07) remained the largest
region on the disk. Both Regions 1542 and 1543 ended the period
with beta-gamma magnetic configurations.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low
with a slight chance for an M-class event.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 11/2100Z to 12/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was quiet. A solar sector boundary change,
from positive to negative occurred at approximately 12/1330Z. Wind
speed at the ACE spacecraft rose from approximatly 300 km/s at the
beginning of the period to end near 400 km/s. The Bz component of
the interplanetary magnetic field was slightly negative from 11/21Z
to 12/06Z, then ranged from +/- 5nT for the remainder of the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet to unsettled, with a slight chance for an
active period, for days 1 and 2 (13-14 August) before becoming
mostly quiet on day 3 (15 August). The increased activity on the
first two days is expected from the influence of a weak high speed
stream.
