Activity increased to high levels. Region 9690 (S17E45) produced an M5/1n flare at 07/2001 UTC associated with relatively minor centimetric radio bursts. This region showed no significant changes, but remained large and magnetically complex. It also produced numerous flares including three low-level M-class. Region 9684 (N06W68) was stable as it approached the west limb, but remained magnetically complex. Region 9687 (S20W02) also showed a complex magnetic structure, but was quiet during the period. New Regions 9691 (N07E64), 9692 (N07W10), 9693 (N11E03), and 9694 (N14E79) were numbered. Today's Penticton noon 10.7 cm radio flux reading of 269 SFU was flare enhanced. The morning reading of 230 SFU was more reflective of the current state of the Sun.

Activity is expected to be at moderate to high levels. M-class flares are expected. There will be a chance for isolated major flare activity from Regions 9684, 9687, and 9690.

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from unsettled to minor storm levels through 07/0600 UTC, then decreased to mostly quiet to unsettled levels for the remainder of the period as CME effects subsided. The greater than 100 MeV proton event that began on 04 November ended at 06/2315 UTC. The greater than 10 MeV proton event that began on 04 November continued. The polar cap absortion event continued as well.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at mostly quiet to unsettled levels with brief active intervals possible during the first half of the period. The greater than 10 MeV proton event is expected to end late on 09 November. The polar cap absorption event is expected to end early on 09 November.
