COMMENT: Solar activity was low on UT day 11 November with a 
C2.6 flare from new region 2782(S32E64) at 11/1912UT. There is 
currently two numbered regions on the visible disk; 2781((S23W35) 
and 2782. No Earthward directed CMEs were observed in available 
coronagraph images. Solar activity is expected to be mostly low 
for the next three UT days, 12-14 November. On UT day 11 November,the 
solar wind speed was near its nominal levels, under 350 Km/s. 
The total IMF (Bt) varied mostly between 3-8 nT and the north-south 
component of the IMF (Bz) range was +/- 4 nT. The solar wind 
speed is expected to remain near its nominal levels for the next 
three UT days, 12-14 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.
