Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 050 Issued at 2200Z on 19 Feb 2009

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 18/2100Z to 19/2100Z:
Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed and the visible disk
remains spotless. A weak, slow moving CME was first observed in LASCO C2
imagery lifting off the NW limb at 19/0154Z.

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

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18/2100Z to 19/2100Z: The geomagnetic
field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous
orbit was at high levels early in the summary period.

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be
quiet on day one of the forecast period (20 February). By days two and three
(21 - 22 February), predominately quiet to unsettled conditions are forecast
as a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream is expected to rotate into a
geoeffective position. The CME mentioned earlier is not expected to be
geoeffective.
