Solar Activity
Solar activity reached high levels. Region 3889 (S10E24) produced an impulsive M9.4/2b flare at 10/1206 UTC with accompanying Type-II (~928 km/s) and Tenflare (400 sfu) emissions. Region 3889 also produced an M4.2/1b flare at 10/0015 UTC and an M4.9 flare at 10/2021 UTC, and showed signs of minor development in the vicinity of the leading spot group. The remaining five active regions on the disk were either stable or in decay. No Earth-directed CMEs were detected in available data.
Solar Wind
An enhanced solar wind environment prevailed this period. Total field strength values reached 12 nT and the Bz component was predominately southward after 10/1200 UTC. Solar wind speeds ranged between 375-450 km/s and the phi angle transitioned from negative to positive after 10/1200 UTC.
Energetic Particle
The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels and the greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels.
