Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were detected. The visible disk was spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Geomagnetic field activity was at mostly quiet levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels during the period. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on day 1 (09 May). Activity is expected to decrease to quiet levels during days 2 - 3 (10 - 11 May). III. Event Probabilities 09 May-11 May Class M 01/01/01 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF Green IV.
