Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. The visible solar disk remained spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels again today. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels for the next three days (09 - 11 October). III.
