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

             Solar activity was low. Flare activity was minimal.
       Region 7374 (S08E36) had the brunt of the occasional flares, as
       it evolved to have a weak delta emerge in the intermediate
       spots. Its bright plage suggests the potential for higher
       activity. Elsewhere, surge and prominence activity was seen at
       NE and SE limb.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be
       low to moderate. Any M-class activity should originate in
       Region 7374.

            The geomagnetic field was predominantly quiet to unsettled.
       Substorms brought episodes of major storm conditions to high
       latitudes.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to persist at quiet to unsettled levels. Isolated
       substorms may continue, with the most pronounced effects seen
       at high latitudes.

                        Major-Severe Storm    05/05/05

            HF propagation conditions continued near-normal over all
       regions.  Occasional isolated minor signal degradation was
       reported over some high latitude stations due to localized
       geomagnetic substorming.  Similar conditions may occasionally
       exist over these higher latitude regions for the next several
       days, although no significant global changes in propagation are
       expected.  Low and middle latitude paths should see mostly good
       propagation.  High and polar latitude paths should see
       generally fair to occasionally mildly poor propagation.
