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 at quiet to minor storm levels. Solar wind speed at ACE showed an increase beginning around 18/0500 UTC as a coronal hole high speed stream moved into geoeffective position. Solar wind speed increased to around 600 km/s. An isolated minor storm period occurred between 18/1500 and 18/1800 UTC. D. Stratwarm: Not Available E.
