Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 01/2100Z to 02/2100Z: 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 (03 May, 04 May, 05 May). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 01/2100Z to 02/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 346 km/s at 02/0509Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 02/1048Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 02/0359Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 178 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one, two, and three (03 May, 04 May, 05 May). III.
