Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 20/2100Z to 21/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. No flares were detected. Region 1028 (N26E38) has decayed to spotless plage. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20/2100Z to 21/2100Z: Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet levels. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be quiet on days one and two (22 - 23 October). Quiet to unsettled levels are expected on day three (24 October) in response to a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream. III.
