:Product: 1008RSGA.txt :Issued: 2011 Oct 08 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 281 Issued at 2200Z on 08 Oct 2011 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Region 1309 (N22W11) produced the lone C-class event at 08/0420Z. All of the regions on the disk remained relatively stable. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low to low for the next three days (09-11 October). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet during the past 24 hours. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled on days one and two (09-10 October) due to the effects of a coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS). Mostly quiet conditions are expected on day three (11 October) as the effects from the CH HSS subside. III.
