:Product: Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity :Issued: 2000 Dec 01 2200 UT # Prepared jointly by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, #Space Environment Center and the U.S. Air Force. # Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity SDF Number 336 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Dec 2000 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Isolated C-class flares occurred, with Regions 9246 (S12E04), 9242 (N21W28), and 9240 (N09W43) contributing. The nine spot groups on the disk were stable or declining, as little of significance occurred. There was limb activity associated with now-departed Region 9236 (N20). The East Limb was quiet. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low to moderate. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be predominantly unsettled throughout the period. III.
