:Product: 0930RSGA.txt :Issued: 2010 Sep 30 2201 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 273 Issued at 2200Z on 30 Sep 2010 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 29/2100Z to 30/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. Region 1109 (N21W39) produced several B-class events. Region 1109 has decreased in areal coverage and extent and is now a Dhi group with a beta magnetic configuration. Region 1110 (N19W60) has also decreased in areal coverage and is now a Bxo group with a beta magnetic configuration. Region 1111 (N24E42) is an A-type group with one spot. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with C-class activity likely. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 29/2100Z to 30/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet during the past 24 hours. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet for days one and two (01-02 October). Mostly quiet with a slight chance for isolated unsettled periods are expected for day three (03 October) due to recurrent activity. III.
