Energetic Events Begin Max End Rgn Loc Xray Op 245MHz 10cm Sweep None B. Proton Events: None C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary: The geomagnetic field was quiet to minor storm conditions. A shock passed the ACE spacecraft at 18/1919 UTC and created a sudden impulse of 31 nT on the Boulder magnetometer at 18/2007 UTC. Solar wind velocity increased from 381 km/s to 450 km/s. This shock is believed related to the full halo CME on 16 May. D. Stratwarm: None E.
