Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. New Region 854 (S07E23) was numbered today. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet to active. Active periods were due to the onset of a coronal hole high speed stream. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled with the possibility of an isolated active period on 16 February. On 17 and 18 February, mostly quiet conditions are expected. III. Event Probabilities 16 Feb-18 Feb Class M 01/01/01 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF green IV.
