Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity SDF Number 325 Issued at 2200Z on 21 Nov 2005 IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 20/2100Z to 21/2100Z: Solar activity was at very low levels. Region 822

(S08W37) has decayed in both size and magnetic complexity. Regions

823 (S15W63) and 824 (S12E57) have been quiescent. No new regions were numbered today.

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be at low levels. There is a chance for M-class activity from Region 822.

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 20/2100Z to 21/2100Z:
