Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 09/2100Z to 10/2100Z: Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 3 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 (11 Aug, 12 Aug, 13 Aug). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 09/2100Z to 10/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 582 km/s at 10/0516Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 09/2104Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -4 nT at 10/1654Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 1559 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on day one (11 Aug) and quiet levels on days two and three (12 Aug, 13 Aug). III.
