Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 06/2100Z to 07/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 2 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 day one (08 Dec) and expected to be very low with a slight chance for a C-class flare on days two and three (09 Dec, 10 Dec). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 06/2100Z to 07/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 430 km/s at 07/1023Z. Total IMF reached 7 nT at 07/0247Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -3 nT at 07/0942Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 664 pfu. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on days one and two (08 Dec, 09 Dec) and quiet to unsettled levels on day three (10 Dec). III.
