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.

Joint USAF/NOAA Solar and Geophysical Activity Summary
SGAS Number 132 Issued at 0245Z on 12 May 2003 This report is compiled from data received at SWO on 11 MayA. Energetic Events

B. Proton Events
None
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field has been at
unsettled to minor storm levels due to the continued influence of a
high speed solar wind stream. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux
at geosynchronous orbit continues to be at high levels.
