Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 190 Issued at 2200Z on 09 Jul 2009
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 08/2100Z
to 09/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares occurred during
the past 24 hours. Region 1024 (S09W65) was quiet and stable as it
approached the west limb.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very
low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 08/2100Z to 09/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet. Solar wind started to
increase at approximately 1700Z due to coronal hole effects. This
resulted in an unsettled period for 1800Z to 2100Z.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected be quiet on day one (10 July). Day two (11 July) is
expected to be quiet to unsettled due to possible coronal hole
effects. Day three (12 July) is expected to be quiet.
