Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 327 Issued at 2200Z on 23 Nov 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 22/2100Z to 23/2100Z: Solar activity was very low.

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

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 22/2100Z to 23/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet to active with minor storm conditions at high latitudes. Solar wind observations from the ACE spacecraft indicate a continued influence of the coronal hole high speed stream. Solar wind speeds began the past 24 hour period at 620 km/s and are currently averaging around 550 km/s.

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled for 24-26 November.
