SUMMARY FOR 30 JUNE AND FORECAST FOR 01 JULY - 03 JULY
STATUS INDICATORS SOL:GREEN   MAG:GREEN     ION: GREEN
-----------------------------------------------------------
1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 30 Jun:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 30 Jun:  67/0

COMMENT: Solar activity remained Very Low on UT day 30 June. 
There is currently 0 numbered sunspot regions on the visible 
solar disk. Very Low solar activity is expected for the next 
3 UT days, 1-3 July. There were no Earth-directed CMEs observed 
in the available coronagraph imagery. On UT day 30 June, the 
solar wind speed varied between 300-350 km/s. The total IMF (Bt) 
varied between 2-5 nT for most of the UT day, but reached a peak 
of 6.3 nT at 30/2227 UT. The north-south component of the IMF 
(Bz) mostly varied between +/-4 nT, reaching a minimum of -4.5 
nT at 30/2307 UT. The solar wind is expected to be mainly at 
background levels for the next 3 UT days, 1-3 July, but may become 
weakly enhanced on 1 July due to the influence of a small negative 
polarity coronal hole.

Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 30 Jun :

      Townsville           0   (Quiet)

      Canberra             0   (Quiet)
      Melbourne           NA

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.

01 Jul     7    Quiet to Unsettled
02 Jul     5    Quiet
03 Jul     5    Quiet

COMMENT: Geomagnetic activity was at Quiet levels across the 
Australian region for the UT day 30 June. Mainly Quiet levels 
were observed in the Antarctic region, with some Unsettled periods. 
Global geomagnetic activity may increase to Quiet to Unsettled 
levels on 1 July due to the possible influence of a small coronal 
hole, returning to mainly Quiet on 2-3 July.

COMMENT: Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) ranged mostly from 
near predicted monthly values to slightly enhanced at times for 
all regions today, UT day 30 June. Sporadic-E and Spread F occurrences 
were observed over some Australian sites. For UT days 1-3 July, 
MUFs are expected to range mostly near predicted monthly levels.
