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.

None
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field was at unsettled to active levels. The Bz component of the interplanetary magnetic field remained mostly southward today in a high speed coronal hole stream. The greater than 2 MeV electron fluxes at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels during the past 24 hours.
