B.  Proton Events:  A greater than 10 MeV peak flux of 424 pfu was
observed at 10/1655Z. A greater than 100 Mev proton event began at
10/0320Z, peaked at 2.1 pfu at 10/0340Z, and ended at 10/1250Z.
C.  Geomagnetic Activity Summary:  The geomagnetic field ranged from
active to severe storm levels. Yesterday's strong shock at 09/1852Z
was followed by a short period of strong southward Bz to near 40 nT,
before rotating northward for approximately five hours. At 10/0100Z,
the solar wind exceeded 800 km/s and Bz rotated southward again,
ranging from -15 to -25 nT for over nine hours. The geomagnetic
field response was severe at all latitudes. The period ended at
minor storm levels with solar wind speed declining to near 600 km/s.
D.  Stratwarm:  None.
