> Summary For January 10-16
> Category R1 - minor (14 - 15 January) radio blackouts were observed due
> to solar flare activity from active sunspot Region 718.  Category R1 -
> minor (14 - 16 January), category R2 - moderate (15 January), and
> category R3 - strong (15 January) were observed due to significant
> solar flare activity from active sunspot region 720.  Category S1 -
> minor (16 January) and S2 - moderate (16 January) solar radiation
> storms were observed due to solar flare activity from active sunspot
> region 720 on the Sun.  Category G1 - minor (12 January) and category
> G2 - moderate (15 January) geomagnetic storming occurred due to high
> speed solar winds from a coronal hole on the sun.
> 
> Outlook For January 19-25
> Category R1 (minor), R2 (moderate), and R3 (strong) radio blackouts are
> possible from active sunspot Region 720 through 22 January.  There is a
> chance for category G1 (minor), G2 (moderate), and G3 (strong)
> geomagnetic storms due to clouds of magnetic material from solar flares
> on the Sun and from high speed solar winds from a coronal hole on the
> Sun.  Category S1 (minor), S2 (moderate), and S3 (strong) solar
> radiation storms are possible with major solar flare activity from
> active sunspot Region 720.
