SUBJ: SWS DAILY SOLAR AND GEOPHYSICAL REPORT
ISSUED AT 2330UT/27 JUNE 2017 BY Space Weather Services
FROM THE AUSTRALIAN SPACE FORECAST CENTRE
SUMMARY FOR 27 JUNE AND FORECAST FOR 28 JUNE - 30 JUNE
STATUS INDICATORS SOL:GREEN   MAG:GREEN     ION: GREEN
-----------------------------------------------------------
1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 27 Jun:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 27 Jun:  74/11


1B. SOLAR FORECAST
             28 Jun             29 Jun             30 Jun
Activity     Very low to low    Very low to low    Very low to low
Fadeouts     None expected      None expected      None expected
10.7cm/SSN    75/13              75/13              75/13

COMMENT: Solar activity was Very Low over the last 24 hours. 
No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in the available LASCO imagery. 
Region 2664 (N18W18) is currently the only region on the visible 
disc and remains quiet and stable. The solar wind speed declined 
gradually over the UT day, from 530km/s at 00UT to be 460km/s 
at the time of this report. The Bz component of the interplanetary 
magnetic field ranged between +2nT and -3nT. The solar wind speed 
is expected to remain at this nominal level for the next 24 hours. 
Solar wind parameters are expected to be mildly enhanced between 
29Jun-30Jun due to the influence of a small equatorially located 
positive polarity coronal hole. Very Low solar activity is expected 
for the next 3 days with a small chance of C-class flares.

Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 27 Jun :

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: Quiet conditions observed over the last 24 hours. Mostly 
Quiet conditions are expected for 28Jun. Quiet with possible 
Unsettled periods expected on 29Jun-30Jun due to the influence 
of a small equatorially located positive polarity coronal hole.

COMMENT: Observed MUF's near predicted monthly values over the

Niue Is. station and enhanced to disturbed conditions for Antarctic 
regions. Similar conditions are expected for the next 24 hours. 
Depressed MUF's for Southern AUS/NZ regions possible 29Jun-30Jun
