Proton Events: None C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary: The geomagnetic field was at quiet to active levels. Influences from yesterdays favorably positioned coronal hole have waned as the solar wind speed has dropped to approximately 400 km/s. The greater than 2 MeV electron fluxes reached high levels today. D. Stratwarm: None E.
