Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 12/2100Z to 13/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were observed. The visible disk remained spotless. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 12/2100Z to 13/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet levels on day 1 (14 October). Activity is expected to increase to quiet to unsettled levels on days 2 - 3 (15 - 16 October) as an equatorward extension of the northern crown coronal hole begins to influence the field. III.
