Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were detected. The visible disk was spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 07/2100Z to 08/2100Z: Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet levels. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet levels during days 1 - 2 (09 - 10 October). Field activity is expected to increase to quiet to unsettled levels on day 3 (11 October) due to a recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream. III.
