Energetic Events Begin Max End Rgn Loc Xray Op 245MHz 10cm Sweep 0141 0141 0141 360 0142 0142 0142 290 B. Proton Events: None C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. A favorably positioned coronal hole was responsible for the elevated conditions. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached moderate levels today. D. Stratwarm: STRATWARM ALERT/SATURDAY/STRATWARM EXISTS UPPER STRATOSPHERIC WARMING, CENTERED WITH PLUS 42C AT 1HPA OVER 70N/0E, CONTINUES; TEMPERATURE GRADIENT BETWEEN 60N AND THE POLE STILL REVERSED BETWEEN 10 AND 1HPA.
