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

             Solar activity decreased to very low levels.  Region
       956 (N02E21) was limited to the production of multiple B-class
       flares during the past 24 hours.  The sunspot area and magnetic
       complexity underwent further enhancement today.  Region analysis
       continues to depict a dkc beta-gamma-delta sunspot group.  Regions
       955 (S09W92) and 957 (S04W47) were spotless over the past 24 hours. 
       No new regions were numbered today.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be at
       low levels.  There is a slight chance of an isolated M-class flare
       from region 956.

            The geomagnetic field was at predominantly quiet levels.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be at predominantly quiet levels on 17 may. 
       Predominantly unsettled to active conditions with isolated minor
       storm periods are possible on 19 and 20 may, due to a recurrent
       coronal hole high speed stream.
