Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 012 Issued at 2200Z on 12 Jan 2001
IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from  11/2100Z
to 12/2100Z:  Solar activity was low. Only three isolated C-class
events occurred during the period. The largest being an optically
uncorrelated C2 event at 12/1212 UTC.
IB.  Solar Activity Forecast:  Solar activity is expected to be low
with isolated M-class events possible.
IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 11/2100Z to 12/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet to unsettled with a single
mid-latitude active period occurring at 12/0300-0600 UTC.
IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast:  The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet to active.
