Joint USAF/NOAA Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast
SDF Number 44 Issued at 2200Z on 13 Feb 2014
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 12/2100Z to
13/2100Z: Solar activity has been at high levels for the past 24 hours.
The largest solar event of the period was a M1 event observed at
13/0140Z from Region 1974 (S07W25). There are currently 6 numbered
sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is likely to be moderate
with a slight chance for an X-class flare on days one, two, and three
(14 Feb, 15 Feb, 16 Feb).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 12/2100Z to 13/2100Z: The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed,
as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 431 km/s at
12/2151Z. Total IMF reached 9 nT at 13/0904Z. The maximum southward
component of Bz reached 0 nT at 13/1353Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV
at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 1686 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet to minor storm levels on day one (14 Feb), unsettled to
major storm levels on day two (15 Feb) and unsettled to active levels on
day three (16 Feb). The increased activity is associated with the
anticipated arrival of the CMEs observed on 11 and 12 Feb.
