1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 06 Nov:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 06 Nov:  82/23

10.7cm/SSN    85/27              85/27              82/23

COMMENT: On UT day 06 November, solar activity was low with two 
C-class flares, both from active region 2894. Region 2894 has 
just rotated onto the visible solar disk. There are two other 
numbered regions currently on the visible disc: AR2891 and AR2891. 
Solar activity is expected to be low on 07-09 November, with 
a chance of more C-class flares and a remote chance M-class flares. 
Two filament eruptions were observed in the last 24 hours; first 
from N00W50 at 05/2359 UT associated with an approximately 20-degree 
long filament has been modelled and initial investigation indicate 
that the associated CME is unlikely to impact earth. The second, 
a ~15-degree long filament from near N27W15 at 06/1107 UT, is 
currently being analysed for evidence of associated CME, if any, 
and its impact on earth. Based on the location of the source, 
any generated CME is likely to impact earth. More updates on 
this event will be provided later. On UT day 06 November, the 
solar wind speed ranged between 520 and 630 km/s in response 
to the CME effects. The total IMF (Bt) range was 2-10 nT and 
the north-south IMF (Bz) component range has been +10/-4 nT. 
The solar wind speed is expected to continue a slow declining 
trend as the CME effects wane.

Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 06 Nov :

      Townsville           0   (Quiet)

      Canberra            41   (Unsettled)
      Hobart              89   (Minor storm)

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.

07 Nov    10    Quiet to Unsettled

09 Nov     5    Quiet to Unsettled

COMMENT: Geomagnetic conditions in the Australian region on UT 
day 06 November range was quiet to minor storm levels due to 
CME impacts. In the Antarctic region unsettled to major storm 
levels were observed. Conditions are expected to be mostly at 
quiet to unsettled levels on 07-08 November. Isolated active 
periods are possible today, 07 November, due to moderately elevated 
solar wind speed.

08 Nov    10    Depressed 15%/near predicted monthly values
09 Nov    10    Depressed 15%/near predicted monthly values

COMMENT: MUFs in the Australian region on UT day 06 November 
were depressed over most Australian region due the recent geomagnetic 
activity. On 07-08 November, MUFs are likely to be depressed, 
though continue on a slow gradual recovery trend
