for 28 March. Observed isolated periods of sporadic E throughout 
the Australian region. Expect mostly near predicted MUFs over 
the next three days with isolated periods of Minor to Moderate 
depressed MUFs on 30-31 March, due to expected weak ionospheric 
storming associated with an increase in geomagnetic activity.
