Solar activity took an unexpected upward turn last week.  The trend
is expected to continue, with the solar flux rising to about 92
around January 23, and then dropping to a low around 75 during the
first week of February.  A recurring coronal hole is currently
causing a disturbance.  This is expected to quiet down between
January 26 through 28, and then create unsettled conditions again
around January 30.  Another quiet period is expected February 4
though 11, with more unsettled conditions by mid month.
 
Sunspot Numbers for January 5 through 11 were 25, 25, 11, 12, 0, 13
and 12, with a mean of 14.  10.7 cm flux was 76.3, 74.4, 74.7, 73.7,
73.8, 73.3 and 75.3, with a mean of 74.5.
 
Sunspot Numbers for January 12 through 18 were 23, 13, 17, 18, 30,
53 and 57, with a mean of 30.1.  10.7 cm flux was 76.2, 74.9, 77.3,
80.6, 82.8, 83.5 and 86.6, with a mean of 80.3.
 
The path projections for this week are from Los Angeles and Boston
to Japan.
