Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity
Issued: 2012 Jun 25 2200 UTC
Prepared jointly by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA,
Space Weather Prediction Center and the U.S. Air Force.
Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 177 Issued at 2200Z on 25 Jun 2012
IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24/2100Z
to 25/2100Z: Solar activity increased to low. New Region 1512
(S16E39, Dao/beta) emerged early on 25 June and gradually grew
during the remainder of the period. It produced a C1/Sf flare at
25/2059Z. A long-duration B7 flare occurred at 25/1848Z from a
region beyond the southeast limb. No Earth-directed coronal mass
ejections were observed during the period.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very
low during the period (26 - 28 June) with a chance for a C-class
flare.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet during the period (26 - 28 June) with a chance
for unsettled levels.

**** SPACE WEATHER OUTLOOK ****
Summary For June 18-24
A category G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm occurred on 18 June due to effects from a coronal mass ejection.
Outlook For June 25-July 1
No space weather storms are expected.
