:Product: 0728RSGA.txt :Issued: 2010 Jul 28 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 209 Issued at 2200Z on 28 Jul 2010 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 27/2100Z to 28/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Region 1089 (S24W48) produced a few B-class x-ray flares as well as a C2 event at 28/2042Z. Newly numbered Region 1092 (N16E76) remains quiet and stable since rotating into view. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low. There is a chance for a C-class flare as well as a slight chance for an M-class flare from Region 1089. A slight chance for a C-class flare also exists from Region 1092. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 27/2100Z to 28/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet to unsettled with the exception of an isolated period of minor storming between 28/00-28/03Z. The greater than 2MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels during the past 24 hours. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is forecast to be mostly quiet to unsettled with a chance for active conditions on day 1 (29 July). Mostly quiet to unsettled with a slight chance for active conditions are forecast for days 2 and 3 (30-31 July). III.
