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.

THE GREATER THAN 10 MEV PROTON FLUX AT
GEOSYNCHRONOUS ORBIT REMAINED ABOVE THRESHOLD VALUES THROUGHOUT THE
PERIOD. FLUX PEAKED AT 84 PFU'S AT 08/0940Z, AND DECREASED TO ABOUT
14 PFU BY END PERIOD.
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD WAS AT
UNSETTLED TO SEVERE STORM LEVELS. A SUDDEN IMPULSE OCCURRED AT
08/0909Z (77 NT, AS MEASURED BY THE BOULDER USGS MAGNETOMETER) AS A
RESULT OF SHOCK ARRIVAL MEASUED AT THE ACE SPACECRAFT, WHERE SOLAR
WIND VELOCITY JUMPED FROM 520 TO OVER 800 KM/S AT 08/0841Z AND BZ
DROPPED TO ABOUT -20NT. MINOR TO SEVERE STORM LEVELS WERE OBSERVED
FOLLOWING THE SHOCK ARRIVAL. THIS SHOCK IS PRESUMED TO BE RELATED
TO THE X2/3B EVENT ON 06 JUNE.
