COMMENT: ASWFC HF Communications Warning 48 was issued on 21
May and is current for 22-24 May. ASWFC SWF HF Communications
Warning 49 was issued on 22 May and is current for 23-25 May.
Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) on UT day 22-May were near
predicted monthly values in the Australian region. Spread-F was
observed at Canberra, Hobart and Perth during local night hours.
MUFs are expected to be near predicted monthly values over 23-25
May, with a chance of mild depressions due to possible geomagnetic
activity from coronal hole high speed wind stream effects. Shortwave
fadeouts are probable.
