Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 25/2100Z to 26/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a chance for an isolated C-flare from Region 848 (S20W66). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 25/2100Z to 26/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to major storm levels. An isolated major storm period was observed between 26/1500 UTC and 26/1800 UTC. The heightened activity was due to the influence of a high speed coronal hole stream. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly quiet to unsettled with Isolated active periods possible on 27 January. On 28 and 29 January, quiet to unsettled conditions are expected. III. Event Probabilities 27 Jan-29 Jan Class M 05/05/01 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF green IV.
