Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity Issued: 2007 Apr 05 2200 UTC 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 095 Issued at 2200Z on 05 Apr 2007 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04/2100Z to 05/2100Z: Solar activity remained at very low levels. The visible solar disk was void of sunspots. No new regions were numbered today. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to remain at very low levels. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04/2100Z to 05/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels today. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on 06 and 07 April. The onset of a recurrent coronal hole should begin late on 08 April allowing for possible unsettled conditions to isolated active periods. III.
