Proton Events: The greater than 10 MeV proton event that began at 21/0225 UTC continued. The greater than 10 MeV flux at the close of the period was around 22 pfu and gradually decreasing. C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary: Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet to unsettled levels. D. Stratwarm: None E.
