The author presents an analysis of counter electrojet current events recorded by an array of magnetometers in India and Russia, ranging from 0{degrees} to 75{degrees}N magnetic dip. The author looks at different componenents of the geomagnetic field, D, H, and Z, as signatures of changing current structures. On days when counter electrojet events are observed, very significant changes are seen in all three components of the the geomagnetic field, over the whole latitude array of the stations.
