Report of Solar Geophysical Activity

Joint USAF/NOAA Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast
SDF Number 166 Issued at 2200Z on 15 Jun 2015

IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 14/2100Z to
15/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours.
The largest solar event of the period was a C2 event observed at
15/1032Z. There are currently 6 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB.  Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with
a chance for M-class flares on day one (16 Jun) and expected to be low
with a slight chance for an M-class flare on days two and three (17 Jun,
18 Jun).

IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet to active levels for the past 24 hours. Solar
wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of
633 km/s at 15/0126Z. Total IMF reached 8 nT at 14/2100Z. The maximum
southward component of Bz reached -4 nT at 15/1700Z. Electrons greater
than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 3307 pfu.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet to minor storm levels on day one (16 Jun), quiet to
unsettled levels on day two (17 Jun) and quiet levels on day three (18
Jun).
