Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity
Issued: 2007 May 14 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 134 Issued at 2200Z on 14 May 2007

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z: Solar activity was at very low levels. Newly numbered Region 956 (N02E61) produced several low level B-class flares during the period. This region rapidly grew into a Cao beta magnetic sunspot group. Region 955 (S09W45) underwent little change during the past 24 hours.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels. Emerging Region 956 may further develop this period to produce isolated C-class flares.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at predominantly quiet levels with isolated unsettled conditions possible throughout the forecast period.
