Sunspot Activity
24 Hours previous, sunspots dropped for 2 days in a row. Per condition oranges, they usually drop the same day of the violent event. However it is still very close to the condition orange.

Ending Summary
All prerequisites for a strong condition orange were present. The prevoius drop in sunspots 24 hours before the 7th of July indicates that the outbreak of violence is more dependant upon the peak in Geomagnetic Energy and thus can be used to plot future outbreaks using this trend.
Note: After a few months, NOAA archives all previous data, so these reference links will be unavailable after a few months. The data can still be accessed at the address below:
