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.

B. Proton Events
The greater than 10 MeV proton event that began at 02/1105Z has thus far had a maximum of 1570 pfu, which occurred at 03/0815Z and has recently been ranging between 400 and 800 pfu's at the time of this writing. The greater than 100 MeV proton event began at 02/1740Z, reached a maximum of 49 pfu at 02/1905Z, and ended at 03/1720Z. The polar cap absorption event remains in progress.
