on CR station Moscow.

Cosmic ray variations in September were moderate, but monthly mean for this month was appeared to be as lowest for the last 5 years (cf. the last point on Fig. 2).

Cosmic ray decreases and other specific effects were observed  during of all numerous magnetic storms of this month (on 12-13, 15-16, 22-23, 26-30), but the big Forbush-effects were absent. The most interesting event was on 15th of September (fig. 3). The big and sharp variations in this day are likely related with enhanced and variable cosmic ray anisotropy.

15th and 22nd were the most disturbed days of month (Fig. 4).
