 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 066 Issued at 2200Z on 06 Mar 2008
 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 05/2100Z
 to 06/2100Z: Solar activity remains at very low levels. Region 984
 (S08W80) is a small beta sunspot group rotating quietly around the
 west limb. The rest of the solar disk and limb is very quiet.
 IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to continue
 at very low levels.
 IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 05/2100Z to 06/2100Z:
 The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux
 at geosynchronous orbit briefly exceeded high levels today.
 IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
 expected to range from quiet to minor storm levels over the next
 three days. Quiet to unsettled conditions are expected on 7 March. A
 recurring high speed coronal hole stream will rotate into a
 geoeffective position on 8 March, and produce occasional active to
 minor storm periods on 8 and 9 March.
