Energetic Events Begin Max End Rgn Loc Xray Op 245MHz 10cm Sweep 1815 1816 1816 610 1842 1842 1842 120 B. Proton Events: None C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary: The geomagnetic field was mostly quiet to active with isolated minor storm periods during local nighttime hours. The most active conditions early in the period were due to a waning high speed coronal hole stream. A weak transient passed the ACE spacecraft between 28/1400 - 1500Z. Predominantly southward Bz in the IMF resulted in active levels late in the period. D. Stratwarm: None E.
