SOLAR ACTIVITY WAS MODERATE. THREE SIGNIFICANT FLARES WERE OBSERVED FROM THREE DIFFERENT REGIONS. THE FIRST AND LARGEST WAS AN M3 X-RAY EVENT WITH ACCOMPANYING TENFLARE FROM REGION 9026 (N20E23). THIS REGION IS BY FAR THE LARGEST AND MOST COMPLEX REGION ON THE VISIBLE DISK WITH OVER 800 MILLIONTHS OF WHITE LIGHT AREA IN AN "E" TYPE BETA-GAMMA-DELTA CONFIGURATION. REGION 9024 (S11W45) PRODUCED A C4/1F FLARE WITH TYPE II AND IV RADIO SWEEPS AT 05/0325Z. THERE IS NO NOTEWORTHY MAGNETIC COMPLEXITY OBVIOUS IN THIS REGION WHICH APPEARS TO BE IN DECAY. AN M1/1F FLARE ERUPTED FROM REGION 9031 (S32W52) AT 05/1359Z. ONLY MINOR GROWTH NOTED IN THIS REGION. NEW REGIONS 9032 (S18E41) AND 9033 (N24E77) WERE NUMBERED TODAY.

SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE AT MODERATE TO HIGH LEVELS. REGION 9026 WILL LIKELY PRODUCE M-CLASS FLARES WITH AN ISOLATED CHANCE OF AN X-CLASS FLARE.

THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS UNSETTLED TO ACTIVE WITH ISOLATED MINOR STORMING CONDITIONS AT HIGH LATITUDES. THESE DISTURBED CONDITIONS FOLLOWED THE SUDDEN IMPULSE OBSERVED AT 04/1500Z.

THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AT UNSETTLED TO ACTIVE CONDITIONS THROUGH DAY ONE. MOSTLY QUIET TO UNSETTLED LEVELS ARE EXPECTED ON DAY TWO. UNSETTLED WITH OCCASIONAL ACTIVE PERIODS ARE LIKELY ON DAY THREE DUE TO A FAVORABLY POSITIONED CORONAL HOLE AND THE POSSIBILITY OF EFFECTS FROM THIS MORNING'S C4/CME AT 05/0325Z.
