Solar Activity
Solar activity reached moderate levels. Region 3654 (S07W29, Ehc/beta-gamma-delta) produced two R1 (Minor) events this period, the largest of which was an M3.0 flare at 27/2140 UTC. Region 3654 exhibited moderate development in the intermediate and trailer spots, and developed a delta magnetic configuration. The remaining regions were either stable or in decay. No Earth-directed CMEs were detected in available imagery.
Solar Wind
The solar wind environment was enhanced early in the period due to positive polarity CH HSS influences. Total field strength reached a peak of 13 nT and the Bz component was varied between +11/-10 nT. Solar wind speeds were steady near 400 km/s. The phi angle was in a mostly positive orientation through the period.
Energetic Particle
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels and the greater than 10 MeV proton flux was steady at background levels.
