Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z: Solar activity has been at very low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 5 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 (05 Sep, 06 Sep, 07 Sep). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 447 km/s at 04/0817Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 04/0200Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 03/2140Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 966 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one and two (05 Sep, 06 Sep) and quiet levels on day three (07 Sep). III.
