abstract = "When a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is ejected by the Sun, it
reaches the Earth orbit in a modified state and is called an ICME
(Interplanetary CME). When an ICME blob engulfs the Earth,
short-scale cosmic-ray (CR) storms (Forbush decreases, FDs) occur,
sometimes accompanied by geomagnetic Dst storms, if the B-z
component in the blob is negative. Generally, this is a sudden
process that causes abrupt changes. However, sometimes before this
abrupt change (FD) due to strong ICME blobs, there are slow, small
changes in interplanetary parameters such as steady increases in
solar wind speed V, which are small, but can last for several
hours. In the present communication, CR changes in such an event
are illustrated in the period 1 - 3 October 2013, when V increased
steadily from similar to 200 kms(-1) to similar to 400 kms(-1)
during 24 hours on 1 October 2013. The CR intensities decreased by
1 - 2 \% during some hours of this 24-hour interval, indicating
that CR intensities do respond to these weak but long-lasting
increases in interplanetary solar wind speed.",
