3-day Solar-Geophysical Forecast issued Nov 06 22:00 UTC

Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low.

Geophysical Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be quiet on day one (07 November). Quiet to unsettled levels, with a slight chance for active conditions at high latitudes, are expected on day two (08 November) in response to a weak recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream. Activity is expected to decrease to quiet levels on day three (09 November).


Solar X-ray Flux

3-day Solar Xray Flux graph

This plot shows 3-days of 5-minute solar x-ray flux values measured on the SWPC primary and secondary GOES satellites.
One low value may appear prior to eclipse periods. Click on the plot to open an updating secondary window. Black background version. 6-hour 1-min Solar X-ray Flux plot. See D-region Absorption page for effects of solar x-rays.


Satellite Environment Plot

Proton Flux from GOES-11, Electron Flux from GOES-10 & 11, and GOES Hp from GOES-11 & 12

The Satellite Environment Plot combines satellite and ground-based data to provide an overview of the current geosynchronous satellite environment. Click on a data panel to open an updating secondary window. An updating Satellite Environment Plot window is also available.

Although these data are of interest to the satellite community, they do not include all parameters and energy ranges known to be associated with satellite anomalies. See related information from the NOAA POES satellite -- Auroral Activity Estimates, Relative Intensities of Energetic Particles, and Solar Protons.
