:Product: 0604RSGA.txt :Issued: 2024 Jun 04 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 Solar Geophysical Activity Report and Forecast SDF Number 156 Issued at 2200Z on 04 Jun 2024 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z: Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M2 event observed at 04/0631Z from Region 3697 (S18W20). There are currently 12 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is likely to be moderate with a chance for X-class flares on days one and two (05 Jun, 06 Jun) and likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on day three (07 Jun). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to minor storm levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 516 km/s at 04/0012Z. Total IMF reached 18 nT at 03/2148Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -10 nT at 04/0010Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 115 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to active levels on day one (05 Jun) and quiet levels on days two and three (06 Jun, 07 Jun). Protons have a slight chance of crossing threshold on day one (05 Jun) and have a chance of crossing threshold on days two and three (06 Jun, 07 Jun). III.
