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.

C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field was at predominantly quiet to unsettled levels. An isolated active period occurred at mid and high latitudes between 10/1200 and 1500Z. The greater than 2 MeV electron fluxes at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today.
