SUMMARY FOR 07 JULY AND FORECAST FOR 08 JULY - 10 JULY
STATUS INDICATORS SOL:GREEN   MAG:GREEN     ION: GREEN
-----------------------------------------------------------
1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 07 Jul:  Low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 07 Jul:  76/14

             08 Jul             09 Jul             10 Jul
Activity     Very low to low    Very low to low    Very low to low

10.7cm/SSN    76/14              74/11              74/11

COMMENT: Solar activity was very low on UT day 7 July with just 
a few B-class flares from regions 2835 and 2837. Currently there 
are three numbered regions on the visible disk: AR 2837 (N18W49), 
AR 2839 (N18W00) and AR 2840 (N27W72). A DSF was observed in 
H-alpha and SDO images around 7/0300 UT near S33W35. Another 
larger DSF was observed in H-alpha and SDO images around 7/1700 
UT near N30E40. There was a westward CME observed in Lasco and 
Stereo-A images at 7/1546 UT. Preliminary analysis shows that 
this CME is not geoeffective. There were no other CMEs observed 
in the available coronagraph images. Solar activity is expected 
to be very low to low on UT days 8-10 July. On 7 July, the solar 
wind speed followed a decreasing trend from 390 km/s down to 
320 km/s, currently near 340 km/s. The IMF (Bt) peaked at 9 nT 
and the north-south IMF component (Bz) range was +3/-6 nT. The 
solar wind speed is expected to be near its background levels 
on UT day 8 July and for the first part of UT day 9 July. Then 
the solar wind speed may be elevated to slightly enhanced levels 
late on UT day 9 July through UT day 10 July due to coronal hole 
effects.

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.

08 Jul     7    Quiet

COMMENT: Geomagnetic conditions in the Australian region were 
quiet on UT day 7 July. In the Antarctic region, geomagnetic 
conditions were quiet to unsettled. Global geomagnetic conditions 
are expected to be mostly quiet on UT day 8 July and for the 
first part of UT day 9 July. Then unsettled conditions may be 
observed late on UT day 9 July through UT day 10 July due to 
coronal hole effects.
