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

             Solar activity remained at low levels.  Region 956
       (N02E35) produced a C2/sf flare at 16/1741Z along with multiple
       B-class flares during the past 24 hours.  This region continues to
       show rapid growth in sunspot area and is now magnetically classified
       a dkc beta-gamma-delta sunspot group.  Region 955 (S07W77) continues
       to decay and is currently an axx alpha sunspot group.  New region
       957 (S04W34) was numbered today and is depicting several umbra.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be at
       low to moderate levels.  Isolated M-class flares are possible due to
       the magnetic complexities of region 956.

            The geomagnetic field was at predominantly quiet levels today.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be at predominantly quiet levels on 17 and 18 may.  A
       recurrent coronal hole high speed stream is expected to become
       geoeffective on 19 may.  Unsettled to active conditions are expected
       with isolated minor storm periods possible, as the coronal hole
       becomes favorably positioned.
