:Product: Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity :Issued: 2008 Dec 20 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 355 Issued at 2200Z on 20 Dec 2008 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. The visible disk remained spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to remain at very low levels. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on 21 December. Quiet to unsettled conditions are expected for 22 - 23 December. The increase in activity is forecast due to a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream. III. Event Probabilities 21 Dec-23 Dec Class M 01/01/01 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF Green IV.
