over the last 24 hours. Variable depressions to 30% observed 
local night Equatorial/N Aus and S Aus regions. Expect similar 
conditions next few days with ionospheric support strengthening 
due to increased solar 10.7cm irradiance. There is the slight 
chance for short-wave fadeouts over the forecast period.
