6/30 Update

Two highlights this morning:
.
First, the expected CME arrived at 6/30 @ ~6.18a CDT causing Solar Wind Density to rise to ~15.0/cm3 and Solar Wind Speed to rise to ~420 km/sec and the HP Index to briefly reach HP = 5 (G1) Geomagnetic Storm levels. It doesn’t appear this CME’s going to be strong enough to drop Electron Saturation.
.
Second, an approximately 1 hour long M5.8 Solar Flare from an Exiting Sun Spot erupted this morning, tossing a bunch of protons at Earth. NOAA’s delivered an S1 Solar Radiation (Proton) Storm Watch until 7.00p CDT this evening.
