Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 237 Issued at 2200Z on 25 Aug 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z: Solar activity was very low.

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low to low. Region 969 (S05E22) could produce an isolated C-class event.

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels.

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled, with isolated periods of active conditions. The increase in activity levels is expected due to a favorably positioned coronal hole.
