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

             Solar activity was low. Region 7376 (N15W47), a
       small (30 millionths) CRO group, produced today's only flare:
       a C2.3/1B at 0651Z. The event was accompanied by weak Type II
       and Type IV sweeps. The largest group on the disk, 7381
       (N05W10), continued to show steady growth today but was stable.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be
       low.

            The geomagnetic ranged from quiet to storm levels. Conditions
       bounced from quiet to active from the beginning of the period
       through 1200Z. Since 1200Z mid-latitudes have been at active
       to minor storm levels and high-latitudes fluctuated from minor
       to severe storm levels. The most likely source for this distur-
       bance  is a  filament that  erupted from  disk center  on 22
       December.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be generally unsettled. The current disturbance is
       expected to subside some time in the next 12 hours.

                        Major-Severe Storm    05/01/01

            HF propagation conditions deteriorated over the last 24 hours to
       slightly below normal.  Minor signal degradation has occurred over the
       high and polar latitude paths in the form of enhanced fading and
       multipath activity due to increased levels of geomagnetic and auroral
       activity.  Conditions are expected to continue below normal over the
       next 24 hours and should affect the middle to polar latitude paths
       (with greatest emphasis on the high and polar latitude paths).  Some
       improvements are expected on 30 December.
