COMMENT: Mostly normal HF conditions observed for Australian 
and NZ regions over the last 24 hours. Enhanced MUF's of 20% 
due to consistently strong EUV from current active sunspots observed 
during local night for Northern AUS/Equatorial regions as well 
as local day and night for Southern AUS/NZ regions. Notable sporadic 
E observed for Northern AUS and some Southern AUS/NZ regions 
between 07UT-14UT. Mostly normal HF conditions are expected for 
the next 3 days with continued enhanced MUF's of 10%-20% for 
low to mid latitudes.
