Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 18/2100Z to 19/2100Z: Solar activity was low during the past 24 hours. Region 1324 (N12E55) produced three C-class events, the largest a C5 at 19/0455Z. The region has grown significantly in area and is considered an Fkc-type group with a beta-gamma magnetic configuration. New Region 1325 (N16E82) was numbered today and is an Hax-alpha region. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low for the next three days (20-22 October) with a chance for M-class activity from Regions 1319 (N10W53) and 1324. IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 18/2100Z to 19/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet during the past 24 hours. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly quiet for the next three days (20-22 October). III.
