Joint USAF/NOAA Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast
SDF Number 57 Issued at 2200Z on 26 Feb 2014
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 25/2100Z to
26/2100Z: Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24
hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M1 event observed at
26/1501Z from Region 1982 (S10W49). There are currently 10 numbered
sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is likely to be moderate
with a chance for X-class flares on days one, two, and three (27 Feb, 28
Feb, 01 Mar).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 25/2100Z to 26/2100Z: 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 390 km/s at
25/2203Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at 26/1255Z. The maximum southward
component of Bz reached -3 nT at 26/1725Z. Protons greater than 10 MeV
at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 23 pfu at 26/0010Z.
Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak
level of 288 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet to minor storm levels on day one (27 Feb), quiet to
active levels on day two (28 Feb) and quiet to unsettled levels on day
three (01 Mar). Protons are likely to cross threshold on day one (27
Feb), have a chance of crossing threshold on day two (28 Feb) and have a
chance of crossing threshold on day three (01 Mar).
