Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 233 Issued at 2200Z on 21 Aug 2010
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 20/2100Z
to 21/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed
during the period. No new regions were numbered.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very
low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20/2100Z to 21/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels during the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field activity
is expected to be at quiet levels until late on day three (24
August). Active to minor storm levels are expected late on day three
due to a coronal hole high-speed stream.
