Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 11/2100Z to 12/2100Z: Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 1 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low on days one, two, and three (13 Aug, 14 Aug, 15 Aug). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 11/2100Z to 12/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 448 km/s at 12/0353Z. Total IMF reached 5 nT at 12/1559Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -3 nT at 12/1418Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 158 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one, two, and three (13 Aug, 14 Aug, 15 Aug). III.
