SDF Number 96 Issued at 2200Z on 06 Apr 2018

IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 05/2100Z to
06/2100Z: 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 (07 Apr, 08 Apr, 09 Apr).

IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 05/2100Z to 06/2100Z: The geomagnetic
field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed
reached a peak of 455 km/s at 05/2324Z. Total IMF reached 8 nT at
05/2103Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -2 nT at
06/1647Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a
peak level of 435 pfu.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected
to be at quiet levels on days one, two, and three (07 Apr, 08 Apr, 09
Apr).
