Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 16/2100Z to 17/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. New Regions 895 (N00E09) and 896 (S12E28) were numbered today. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 16/2100Z to 17/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. An isolated active period was observed between 17/0600 - 0900 UTC. 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. III. Event Probabilities 18 Jun-20 Jun Class M 01/01/01 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF green IV.
