Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
06 - 12 December 2021
Solar activity ranged from very low to low. A C1.3 flare was
observed at 06/0622 UTC from Region 2902 (N18, L=198, class/area
Dsi/100 on 02 Dec), the largest of the period. All other numbered
regions on the visible disk were quiescent. No Earth-directed CMEs
were observed in available coronagraph imagery during the reporting
period.
No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was
normal to high levels. High levels were observed from 06-10 Dec
following influence from a positive polarity CH HSS. Normal to
moderate levels returned on 11-12 Dec.
Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to unsettled. Isolated
unsettled levels were observed on 06-07 Dec in response to influence
from a positive polarity CH HSS and again on 11 Dec following the
onset of a weak, slow-moving transient feature. The remainder of the
summary period was at quiet levels.
Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
13 December - 08 January 2022
Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels through the
outlook period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to range from normal to high levels. High levels are likely
on 16-21 Dec and again on 29 Dec - 04 Jan in response to multiple,
recurrent CH HSSs. Normal to moderate levels are expected for the
remainder of the outlook period.
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to G1 (Minor)
geomagnetic storm levels. G1 levels are likely on 27-28 Dec; active
conditions are likely on 15 Dec and 29 Dec; unsettled conditions are
likely on 13 Dec, 16-18 Dec and 30 Dec - 01 Jan. All elevations in
geomagnetic activity are anticipated in response to multiple,
recurrent CH HSSs. The remainder of the outlook period is likely to
be at quiet levels under nominal solar wind conditions.
