Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 156 Issued at 2200Z on 05 Jun 2001
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04/2100Z
to 05/2100Z: Solar activity was moderate. Two M-class events
occurred during the period. An M1/Sf from Region 9484 (S05W20) at
04/2259 UTC, and an M2/2n from Region 9488 (S20E33) at 05/0451 UTC.
Region 9488 also produced an C9/Sn at 05/1421 UTC. Several CME's
were noted by the LASCO instrument during the period, but none
appear earth-directed. Region 9489 (N17E52) was numbered today.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low
to moderate.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04/2100Z to 05/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled conditions.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to be mostly quiet to unsettled. Isolated active periods
are possible on the second and third day of the period due to a
favorably positioned coronal hole.
