SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------

             Solar activity was low. Region 7624 (N04W28) was
       responsible for three C-class flares including the largest of
       the period, a C5/1N at 01/0419UT. This region grew rapidly and
       also produced a number of B-class and subfaint flares through
       the period. Region 7627 (S07E57) is also growing at a good pace
       and produced a single C3/SF flare at 01/0705UT.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be
       low. Region 7624 and 7627 both have good potential for C-class
       flaring and an outside chance of producing an isolated M-class
       flare.

            The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels
       for the past 24 hours at middle latitudes. High latitude
       stations saw minor to severe storming during the last half
       of the period. The activity is most likely the result of a
       well positioned coronal hole.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be unsettled to minor storm at middle latitudes and
       minor to severe storm levels at high latitudes for the next 24
       hours. Activity is then expected to be mostly unsettled to
       active for the remainder of the forecast period.

                        Major-Severe Storm    45/25/25

            HF propagation conditions were not as significantly
       affected during the day as was previously forecasted due to the
       fact that the disturbance, which arrived near 12:00 UTC, failed
       to produce anticipated levels of geomagnetic activity.
       However, moderate to occasionally strong signal degradation was
       reported over the night-sector high and polar latitude paths
       with effects migrating as expected into the upper middle and
       some central-middle latitude paths.  MUFs have decreased by up
       to 30 percent over many regions, with fading, multipathing, and
       absorption common causes of signal degradation.  Conditions are
       expected to continue below-normal over the next 24 to 48 hours.

NOTES:
     All times are in Universal Time (UT).  Characters preceding begin, max,
     and end times are defined as:  B = Before,  U = Uncertain,  A = After.
     All times associated with x-ray flares (ex. flares which produce
     associated x-ray bursts) refer to the begin, max, and end times of the
     x-rays.  Flares which are not associated with x-ray signatures use the
     optical observations to determine the begin, max, and end times.

     Acronyms used to identify sweeps and optical phenomena include:

          II        = Type II Sweep Frequency Event
          III       = Type III Sweep
          IV        = Type IV Sweep
          V         = Type V Sweep
          Continuum = Continuum Radio Event
          Loop      = Loop Prominence System,
          Spray     = Limb Spray,
          Surge     = Bright Limb Surge,
          EPL       = Eruptive Prominence on the Limb.
