Solar activity was low. Frequent C-class flares occurred during the period, mostly from Region 1354 (S17E30). Region 1354 showed little change during the period, but exhibited a moderately complex beta-gamma magnetic configuration. New Region 1357 (N17W18) was numbered and showed gradual spot growth. It produced a single low-level C-class flare during the period. A slow CME was observed off the northwest limb, first visible in SOHO/LASCO C2 images at around 20/1448Z. The CME had an estimated plane-of-sky speed of 163 km/s and was likely associated with a filament eruption from the northwest quadrant. STEREO-A observations suggest the CME had an Earthward component, but further analysis will be required due to limited data.

Solar activity is expected to be low during the period (21 - 23 November) with a chance for an M-class flare from Region 1354.

The geomagnetic field was quiet.

The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet through the period (21 - 23 November). The above-mentioned CME is not expected to disturb the field during the period.
