Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 23/2100Z to 24/2100Z: Solar activity was low. Region 1386 (S18E64) produced a C5/Sf at 24/0839Z. Region 1376 (rotating off the West Limb) produced a long duration C4 flare at 24/1236Z. Both were accompanied by CMEs which are not expected to be geoeffective. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a slight chance for an M-class event for the next three days (25-27 December) IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 23/2100Z to 24/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly quiet for the next three days (25-27 December). III.
