Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 157 Issued at 2200Z on 05 Jun 2024

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04-2100Z to 05-2100Z

Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M3 event observed at 05/0856Z from Region 3697 (S18W33). There are currently 12 numbered sunspot regions on the disk.
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on days one, two, and three (06 Jun, 07 Jun, 08 Jun).
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04-2100Z to 05-2100Z
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 511 km/s at 05/0551Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 05/0753Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 05/1528Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 131 pfu.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on days one and two (06 Jun, 07 Jun) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (08 Jun). Protons have a slight chance of crossing threshold on days one, two, and three (06 Jun, 07 Jun, 08 Jun).
