COMMENT: ASWFC SWF HF Communications Warning 15 was issued on 
10 February and is current for 11-13 Feb. Maximum usable frequencies 
(MUFs) in the Australian region were near predicted monthly values 
to 30% enhanced. Spread F was observed during local night hours 
at Hobart and Perth. Mildly depressed MUFs observed after local 
dawn at Hobart which is not expected to persist. MUFs are expected 
to be near predicted monthly values to 15% enhanced. Shortwave 
fadeouts are probable. Degraded HF conditions may be experienced 
14-15 Feb due to the anticipated arrival of a CME.
