1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 04 Jun:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 04 Jun:  78/17


1B. SOLAR FORECAST
             05 Jun             06 Jun             07 Jun
Activity     Very low to low    Very low to low    Very low to low

10.7cm/SSN    78/17              78/17              78/17

COMMENT: Solar activity was Very Low on the UT day, 4 June. Expect 
Very Low to Low solar activity for the next 3 UT days, 5-7 June. 
No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in the available LASCO imagery 
up to 04/2136 UT. On the UT day, 4 June, the solar wind speed 
reached its maximum value of 500 km/s at 0100 UT due to the coronal 
hole effect, then it gradually decreased to 400 km/s. Over the 
last 24 hours the Interplanetary Magnetic Field Btotal and its 
Bz component varied in the ranges 2-6 nT and -1/+3 nT, respectively, 
its Bz component was predominately positive. The solar wind speed 
is expected to remain near its background values for the next 
24 hours.

Pc3 pulsations are high frequency (10-45 second period) variations 
of the Earths magnetic field. Daily pc3-indices are the daily sum 
of 20 minute pc3-indices for that station and have been shown to be
well correlated with rejection of high resolution aeromagnetic
survey flight-line data. 

NOTE: Indices may have been generated from data obtained in 
cooperation with the following organisations: Geoscience Australia, 
University of Newcastle Space Physics Group, Australian Government 
Antarctic Division and International Center for Space Weather 
Science and Education, Japan.

COMMENT: In the Australian region geomagnetic activity was Quiet 
over the UT day, 4 June. For 5 June the geomagnetic activity 
is expected to be mostly at Quiet levels and occasionally may 
reach Unsettled levels due to the elevated solar wind speed. 
Mostly Quiet conditions are expected for 6-7 June.
