:Product: 0605RSGA.txt :Issued: 2010 Jun 05 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 156 Issued at 2200Z on 05 Jun 2010 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04/2100Z to 05/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed during the past 24 hours. Region 1076 (S19W61) remains quiet and stable. Newly numbered Region 1077 (N20W47) is an Axx Alpha spot. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to remain very low with only a slight chance for an isolated C-class flare. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04/2100Z to 05/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet over the past 24 hours. Solar winds have decreased to near 450 km/s. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels during the past 24 hours. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to remain mostly quiet with isolated periods of unsettled conditions on day 1 (6 June) due to elevated solar wind speeds and brief periods of Bz south. Quiet to unsettled with intermittent periods of active conditions are expected on days 2 and 3 (7-8 June). The increase in activity is due in part to weak coronal hole effects expected on 7 June as well as the possible arrival of a slow moving CME on 8 June. The CME is from a filament that disappeared on 3 June. A weak halo can be observed on LASCO C3 coronagraph images from early 4 June as well as STEREO A and B coronagraphs from the same period. III.
