Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 28/2100Z to 29/2100Z: Solar activity was very low. Two low-level B-class X-ray events were observed during the period, both on the east limb. The first event was near S30 and the second event was near N32. New Region 1139 (S26E48) was numbered as a simple bi-polar sunspot group. The remainder of the disk and limb was quiet and stable. IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be very low with a slight chance for C-class activity for the next three days (30 December - 1 January). IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 28/2100Z to 29/2100Z: The geomagnetic field was quiet. IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet for the next three days (30 December - 1 January). III.
