Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low with a slight chance for an M-class flare on days one and two (26 Jan, 27 Jan) increasing to a chance for M-class flares on day three (28 Jan). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 24/2100Z to 25/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 409 km/s at 24/2350Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 24/2128Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 25/0106Z. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels on day one (26 Jan), quiet to unsettled levels on day two (27 Jan), and quiet to active levels on day three (28 Jan).
