Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. The visible disk remained spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to remain very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 14/2100Z to 15/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled. Solar wind speed measured at the ACE spacecraft showed a gradual decrease from 670 to 580 km/s. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled for the next three days (16-18 July). III.
