Geophysical report

Any mentioned solar flare in this report has a scaling factor applied by the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC). Because of the SWPC scaling factor, solar flares are reported as 42% smaller than for the science quality data. The scaling factor has been removed from our archived solar flare data to reflect the true physical units.

None
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to minor storm conditions. Persistent southward Bz during most of the day was responsible for the elevated periods of activity.
