SOLAR ACTIVITY REMAINED AT MODERATE LEVELS WITH TWO M-CLASS FLARES DETECTED DURING THE PERIOD. THE FIRST OCCURRED AT 03/0421Z AND WAS LINKED (VIA YOHKOH SXT OBSERVATIONS) TO NEW REGION 8326 (N19E73) BY VIRTUE OF A BRIGHT LOOP STRUCTURE SEEN ABOVE THE REGION FOLLOWING THE FLARE. A LOOP PROMINENCE SYSTEM WAS ALSO OBSERVED ABOVE THIS REGION LATER IN THE DAY FOLLOWING A SUBFAINT FLARE. NEW REGION 8326 APPEARS TO BE THE RETURN OF OLD REGION 8299, WHICH PRODUCED ISOLATED M-CLASS FLARES DURING ITS PREVIOUS ROTATION. THE SECOND WAS A LONG-DURATION M1/SF FROM REGION 8323 (S22E03) AT 03/1608Z. THIS REGION ALSO PRODUCED A LONG-DURATION C3/SF FLARE AT 03/1430Z ACCOMPANIED BY A STRONG TYPE II RADIO SWEEP AND MINOR DISCRETE RADIO EMISSIONS. REGION 8323 REMAINED LARGE WITH MODERATE MAGNETIC COMPLEXITY, BUT SHOWED NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES AS IT BEGAN CROSSING INTO THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE. NEW REGION 8327 (N30E78) WAS ALSO NUMBERED.

SOLAR ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE MODERATE. M-CLASS FLARES ARE POSSIBLE FROM REGIONS 8323 AND 8326. THERE IS ALSO A FAIR CHANCE FOR A MAJOR FLARE FROM REGION 8323.

THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS AT MOSTLY QUIET TO UNSETTLED LEVELS WITH ISOLATED ACTIVE PERIODS REPORTED AT SOME HIGH LATITUDE STATIONS. THE GREATER THAN 2 MEV ELECTRON FLUX AT GEOSYNCHRONOUS ALTITUDE WAS AT MODERATE TO HIGH LEVELS.

THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AT QUIET TO UNSETTLED LEVELS WITH BRIEF ACTIVE PERIODS POSSIBLE AT HIGH LATITUDES DURING THE FIRST DAY. THE GREATER THAN 2 MEV ELECTRON FLUX IS EXPECTED TO DECLINE TO NORMAL TO MODERATE LEVELS ON THE LAST DAY OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.
