SYNOPSIS OF TODAYS ACTIVITY
---------------------------

             Solar activity was moderate.  Region 1045 (N23W17)
       produced three M-class events in the last 24 hours.  Stereo and
       soho/lasco imagery observed cme activity with each of the three
       events.  The largest event was a M4 at 08/0743Z with an associated
       tenflare of 150 sfu.  This region has continued to grow in both
       white light area coverage and sunspot count and is a magnetic
       beta-gamma-delta configuration.  There were two additional tenflares
       observed during the period (both associated with region 1045
       events), a C7/sf at 08/0415Z with a 100 sfu tenflare, and a C8/1f at
       08/0523Z with a 100 sfu tenflare.  A new region was numbered today
       as region 1047 (S15E70).

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be
       moderate with M-class flares likely.  There is a slight chance for a
       X-class event from region 1045.

            The geomagnetic field was quiet.  One unsettled period at
       mid-latitudes was reported at 08/1600Z.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be predominantly unsettled with isolated active
       conditions for the next three days (09-11 february).  These
       conditions are forecast due to the recent cme activity.
