SOLAR AND GEOPHYSICAL ACTIVITY INDICES FOR 16 AUGUST, 2008
----------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: The background x-ray flux was below class A1.0 levels.
Boulder A and K-Indices (BAI & BKI) were not available and have been replaced
by Fredericksburg data (a similar mid-latitude station).

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

             Solar activity was very low. No flares occurred during
       the past 24 hours and the solar disk continues to be spotless.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to be very
       low for the next three days (17-19 august).

            The geomagnetic field was quiet during the past 24 hours. The greater
       than 2 mev electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was high.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be quiet to unsettled with isolated active periods for
       the next three days (17-19 august). The increase is in response to a
       recurrent coronal hole high speed stream.
