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.

C. Geomagnetic Activity Summary
The geomagnetic field was at
unsettled to severe storm levels. A recurrent coronal hole was
responsible for the initial elevated conditions. At approximately
29/1155Z the first of two transients associated with the first two
X-class flares from late on the 27th and early on the 28th passed
the NASA/ACE space craft. The second occurred at approximately
29/1830Z and was responsible for the severe storm conditions seen
late in the period. The greater than 10 MeV proton fluxes at
geosynchronous orbit achieved event levels at 28/2335Z and reached a
maximum of 121 pfu at 29/1530Z. The greater than 2 MeV electron
fluxes at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels today.
