------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: The greater than 2 MeV electron fluence was moderate today.

The background x-ray flux was below class A1.0 levels.

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

             Solar activity was at very low levels.  The visible
       solar disk remained spotless.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to remain
       at very low levels.

            The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels, due to continued
       effects from a coronal hole high speed stream.  Solar wind speed at
       the ace spacecraft reached a maximum of approximately 760 km/s at
       11/2335Z.  By the end of the summary period wind speed was close to
       600 km/s.  The greater than 2 mev electron flux at geosynchronous
       orbit reached high levels again today.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be at predominately unsettled levels, with isolated
       active periods possible on days one and two (13 - 14 february). 
       Conditions are expected to decrease to quiet to unsettled levels on
       day three (15 february) as the high speed stream rotates out of a
       geoeffective position.
