Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 163 Issued at 2200Z on 12 Jun 2001
IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from  11/2100Z
to 12/2100Z:  Solar activity was low. The largest event of the period
was a C6/1n flare and faint CME from Region 9488 (S18W56). Small
centimetric bursts, a Type II radio sweep (687 km/s), and a small
>10 MeV proton enhancement accompanied this flare. Minor C-class
flares were also observed in Regions 9487 (N22W55), 9492 (N21W15),
and 9494 (S07W80). New Region 9502 (S25E68) was numbered today.
IB.  Solar Activity Forecast:  Solar activity is expected to be low
to moderate. An isolated M-class flare is possible.
IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 11/2100Z to 12/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was at mostly low levels. A single period of
unsettled conditions were observed between 12/1800 - 2100Z.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast:  The geomagnetic field is
expected to continue at quiet to unsettled levels.
