COMMENT: Solar activity was low on UT day 10 November. Region 
2781(S23W22) showed continued decrease and produced an impulsive 
C1.3 flare at 10/1946UT. A new region has rotated on the southeast 
limb while region 2780(N20W49) is spotless. No CME signature 
was observed in association with the C-flare up to 10/2124UT. 
No other Earthward directed CMEs were observed in the coronagraph 
images. Solar activity is expected to be low for the next three 
UT days, 11-13 November with a slight chance of an M-class flare. 
On UT day 10 November,the solar wind speed was near its nominal 
levels. The total IMF (Bt) was around 5 nT and the north-south 
component of the IMF (Bz) was positive. The solar wind speed 
is expected to remain near its nominal levels for the next three 
UT days, 11-13 November.

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.
