In November 2004, a major magnetic storm occurred and a lengthy portion of which was recorded by the Upper Atmospheric Radar Chain. On the 9th and 10th of November, the Jicamarca radar detected the highest magnitude penetrating electric fields and vertical drifts ever seen. These large and variable drifts were highly correlated with the interplanetary magnetic and electric fields and created a double F layer on the dayside equatrorial ionosphere and unusual TEC behavior throughout the low latitude zone. These solar wind induced drifts, both suppressed and generated irregularities at the magnetic equator at different times. Large scale thermospheric disturbances were generated by high latitude heating and tracked through the middle to low latitude zones, where both parallel and perpendicular plasma drifts created major ionospheric changes. The auroral oval was located at a magnetic L shell of about three for many hours.
