Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 0 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low on days one, two, and three (02 May, 03 May, 04 May). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 30/2100Z to 01/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 322 km/s at 01/0727Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 01/0945Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -6 nT at 01/0610Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 191 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on day one (02 May) and quiet to unsettled levels on days two and three (03 May, 04 May). III.
