B. Proton Events
The GOES-16 greater than 10 MeV proton flux
reached a peak of 18.5 pfu at 05/1745Z due to CME activity
associated with a long-duration M1.6/1n flare at 05/0718Z from
Region 3386.
C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field reached
major storm levels in response to the onset of CME influence
associated with activity on the Sun over 01-02 Aug.
