Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C1 event observed at 20/0920Z from Region 1777 (S16E66). There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a chance for M-class flares on days one, two, and three (21 Jun, 22 Jun, 23 Jun). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 19/2100Z to 20/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 493 km/s at 20/2000Z. Total IMF reached 15 nT at 20/1839Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -11 nT at 20/1839Z. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at unsettled to minor storm levels on day one (21 Jun), quiet to active levels on day two (22 Jun) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (23 Jun).
