Geophysical report
Any mentioned solar flare in this report has a scaling factor applied by the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC). Because of the SWPC scaling factor, solar flares are reported as 42% smaller than for the science quality data. The scaling factor has been removed from our archived solar flare data to reflect the true physical units.

None
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field was quiet to
unsettled except for one active period at high latitudes. The solar
wind continued to exhibit characteristics of a high speed stream.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached
high levels.
