Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 08/2100Z to 09/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a C6 event observed at 09/0551Z from Region 2740 (N08E00). There are currently 2 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a chance for a C-class flares on days one, two, and three (10 May, 11 May, 12 May). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 08/2100Z to 09/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 391 km/s at 09/1850Z. Total IMF reached 8 nT at 09/0955Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 09/0832Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 843 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on day one (10 May) and quiet to active levels on days two and three (11 May, 12 May). III.
