Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 165 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Jun 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. Region 960 has rotated around the west limb. The visible solar disk is now spotless.

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low.

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was mostly unsettled to active. There was a single period of minor storming at mid latitudes as the solar wind speed increased to about 550 km/s due to a recurrent coronal hole rotating into geoeffective position.

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be unsettled to active with a chance for minor storm periods on 15 June due to the coronal hole high speed stream. Expect quiet to unsettled conditions on 16 – 17 June.
