Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 31/2100Z to 01/2100Z: Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24 hours. The largest solar event of the period was a M3 event observed at 01/0723Z from Region 1967 (S13E16). There are currently 3 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on day one (02 Feb) and likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on days two and three (03 Feb, 04 Feb). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 31/2100Z to 01/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed, as measured by the ACE spacecraft, reached a peak speed of 377 km/s at 01/1923Z. Total IMF reached 6 nT at 01/1954Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -5 nT at 01/1927Z. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to minor storm levels on day one (02 Feb), quiet to active levels on day two (03 Feb) and quiet levels on day three (04 Feb).
