Solar Activity
Solar activity reached high levels this period. The largest flare of the period was an M7.3/2b at 26/0315 UTC, from Region 3938 (N21E40, Eac/beta-gamma-delta). Regions 3928 (S14W35, Eac/beta-gamma), 3936 (N14W01, Ekc/beta), and 3938 (N21E40, Eac/beta-gamma-delta) experienced substantial growth. The remaining regions were either stable or in decay.
Solar Wind
Solar wind parameters were largely consistent throughout the period. Total field was at nominal background levels, never reaching above 5 nT, with Bz varying -2 and 3 nT. Solar wind speeds started the period around 450 km/s and decreased to around 350 km/s. The phi angle remained negative.
Energetic Particle
The greater than 10 MeV proton flux remained elevated above background but well below the S1 threshold, mostly due to activity that erupted on the far side of the Sun over 20 Dec and potentially extended by recent eruptive activity. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux reached moderate levels.
