COMMENT: On UT day 07 November, solar activity was low with only 
B-class flares all from active region 2894. This region is currently 
located at S29E47 and is moving towards the solar centre. There 
are two other numbered regions currently on the visible disc: 
AR2891 and AR2893. AR2891 will soon rotate to the far-side of 
the sun. Solar activity is expected to be low on 08-10 November, 
with a chance of C-class flares. We found no definite evidence 
of possible CME associated with ~15-degree long filament from 
near N27W15 occurring at 06/1107 UT. The CME observed in LASCO 
C2 imagery and SDO AIA 171 at 07/1500 UT is a far-side event 
and will not impact the earth. On UT day 07 November, the solar 
wind speed ranged between 450 and 520 km/s and seems to be gradually 
declining towards background level. These moderately elevated 
solar winds are in response to the waning effects of CME. The 
total IMF (Bt) range was 2-5 nT. The north-south IMF (Bz) component 
range has been +3/-1 nT and was mostly northwards throughout 
the UT day. The solar wind speed is expected to continue a slow 
declining trend as the CME effects further wane. Mostly mildly 
elevated to background solar wind conditions are expected for 
today, UT day 08 November.

      Hobart              22   (Quiet to unsettled)

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.

COMMENT: Geomagnetic conditions in the Australian region on UT 
day 07 November was initially active, and then were mostly at 
quiet levels. In the Antarctic region unsettled to minor storm 
levels were observed. Conditions are expected to be mostly at 
quiet to unsettled levels on 08 November. Isolated active periods 
are possible today, 08 November, due to moderately elevated solar 
wind speed. Mostly quiet conditions are expected from UT day 
09 November.

COMMENT: HF propagation conditions are expected to be normal 
to fair on UT days 08-09 November with degraded conditions mostly 
at mid and high latitudes. These are in response to the recent 
disturbed periods. Mostly normal conditions are likely on UT 
day 10 November.

COMMENT: MUFs in the Australian region on UT day 07 November 
were moderately depressed in response to the recent magnetic 
storms. The depressions were more prominent in the Southern Australian 
Regions. On 08-09 November, MUFs are likely to be depressed, 
however, are expected to continue a slow gradual recovery.
