The largest solar event of the period was a X1 event observed at 16/1326Z from Region 3738 (N09W83). There are currently 15 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. # :Solar_Forecast: Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is likely to be moderate with a chance for X-class flares on day one (17 Jul) and likely to be moderate with a slight chance for an X-class flare on days two and three (18 Jul, 19 Jul). # :Geophysical_Activity: Geophysical Activity Summary 15/2100Z to 16/2100Z: The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled levels for the past 24 hours. Solar wind speed reached a peak of 423 km/s at 16/2013Z. Total IMF reached 17 nT at 16/0526Z. The maximum southward component of Bz reached -9 nT at 15/2341Z. Electrons greater than 2 MeV at geosynchronous orbit reached a peak level of 216 pfu. # :Geophysical_Forecast: Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels on days one and three (17 Jul, 19 Jul) and quiet to active levels on day two (18 Jul). Protons have a chance of crossing threshold on day one (17 Jul) and have a slight chance of crossing threshold on days two and three (18 Jul, 19 Jul).
