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 flux reached a peak flux of 748 pfu at 12/0005 UTC. The greater than 100 MeV proton flux has gradually declined to near 2 pfu.
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled for most of the day. An increase to isolated active and minor storm conditions occurred the final two synoptic periods of the day, likely associated with the arrival of a CIR ahead of a positive polarity CH HSS.
