Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity
Issued: 2007 Jul 30 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 211 Issued at 2200Z on 30 Jul 2007
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 29/2100Z
to 30/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. An asymmetric full halo
CME was observed in LASCO data starting at approximately 30/0454Z.
This CME is believed to be a backsided event.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very
low.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 29/2100Z to 30/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to active due to a
geoeffective coronal hole. Solar wind speed remains elevated at
approximately 600 km/s at time of issue.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet to unsettled with a chance for active periods
for the next two days (31 July - 01 August) due to continued coronal
hole effects. Expect mostly quiet conditions on 02 August.
