COMMENT: IPS SWF HF Communications Warning 21 was issued on 1 
April and is current for 2-3 Apr. HF conditions were mostly normal 
in the Australian region over the last 24 hours with enhanced 
MUFs in most areas. Similar conditions are expected for the next 
three days, however depressions at high latitudes possible on 
02-03 April due to an expected increase in geomagnetic activity. 
MUFs will likely remain above monthly predicted values even with 
minor depressions.
