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.

C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. An isolated period of minor storming occurred at the Boulder magnetometer between 23/0900 and 1200Z. The elevated conditions are due to a recurrent high speed coronal hole stream. The solar wind speeds increased from near 400 km/sec to over 600 km/sec, between 23/0600 and 1200Z.
