| Report of Solar-Geophysical Activity Issued: 2008 Jan 14 2200 UTC
 Prepared jointly by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, NOAA,
 Space Weather Prediction Center and the U.S. Air Force.
 
 Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
 SDF Number 014 Issued at 2200Z on 14 Jan 2008
 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 13/2100Z
 to 14/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. The visible disk remains
 spotless.
 IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to remain
 very low.
 IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 13/2100Z to 14/2100Z:
 The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to active levels under the
 influence of a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream. Solar wind
 speed at ACE reached 750 km/s during the period. The greater than 2
 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today.
 IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
 expected to remain at unsettled to active levels with isolated storm
 periods at high latitudes on Days 1 and 2 (15-16 Jan). The high
 speed stream is expected to depart on Day 3 (17 Jan) and activity
 levels should diminish to quiet to unsettled.
