Solar activity was at moderate levels. The largest flare during the period was an M2 x-ray flare that occurred at 31/0016 UTC. The source region, based on EIT/LASCO imagery, is believed to originate from an area just behind the east limb in the proximity of newly numbered Region 9979 (S31E77). A long duration C3 x-ray flare that occurred 31/0321 UTC had an associated Type II radio sweep with an estimated shock velocity of 498 km/s. The source region for this event appears to have originated from the northwest limb, again, based on EIT/LASCO imagery. Region 9973 (S16E34) produced several minor C-class flares and retains a moderately complex beta-gamma magnetic structure to the spot group. Regions 9977 (S20W41) and 9978 (S20E62) were also numbered today.

Solar activity is expected to be at moderate levels. Region 9973 has a slight chance of producing a major flare event.

The geomagnetic field was at quiet to unsettled levels.
