Solar activity was moderate. Region 1339 (N19E31) produced three M-class events during the past 24 hours, the largest of which was an M3/1F at 0335Z. The other two M flares were an M1 at 1121Z and another M1 at 2038Z. Region 1339 continues to be the dominant group on the disk but showed a slight decrease in area and magnetic complexity. Nonetheless the group is still large (about 1190 millionths) and still has at least two magnetic delta configurations. New Region 1340 (S09E61) was assigned and is a simple H-type sunspot group. White light imagery from SDO show two significant spot groups rotating around east limb at about 9 degrees north and 17 degrees north. These are assigned NOAA Region numbers 1341 and 1342 respectively. The proximity of these regions to the limb makes it difficult to assess their size and complexity at this time.

Solar activity is expected to be moderate but with a slight chance for major flare activity (M5 or higher). In addition, as Region 1339 rotates closer to central meridian there will also be a slight chance for a proton producing event.

The geomagnetic field was quiet during the past 24 hours. The proton enhancement that began on 04 October continued to show decreasing flux but was still slightly elevated above background levels.

The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet for the next three days.
