Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Solar activity has been very low. Only low level B-class flares were observed during the past 24 hours. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low to low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled. Isolated periods of active conditions are possible for 10-11 May as a result of the C1 flare and CME on 07 May. III.
