Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 244 Issued at 2200Z on 31 Aug 2012
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30/2100Z
to 31/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Regions 1560 (N04E09), 1563
(S24E58) and newly numbered 1564 (S13E70) each produced low-level C
flares during the period. Region 1564 rotated around the east limb
overnight and is considered a Dao-beta spot group. Region 1560 grew
in areal coverage and became more magnetically complex with a
beta-gamma magnetic configuration. A C8 flare associated with a
large filament eruption near S06E20 occurred at 31/2043Z associated
with Type II (estimated speed 515 km/s) and Type IV radio sweeps. A
CME first became visible on SDO/AIA 304 imagery at approximately
1945Z. Further evaluation will be conducted as SOHO LASCO imagery
becomes available.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low
with a chance for moderate activity throughout the forecast period
(01-03 September).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30/2100Z to 31/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux
at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels during the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to remain quiet for the next three days (01-03 September).
