FROM THE AUSTRALIAN SPACE FORECAST CENTRE
SUMMARY FOR 10 JUNE AND FORECAST FOR 11 JUNE - 13 JUNE
STATUS INDICATORS SOL:GREEN   MAG:GREEN     ION: GREEN
-----------------------------------------------------------
1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 10 Jun:  Low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 10 Jun: 114/65


1B. SOLAR FORECAST
             11 Jun             12 Jun             13 Jun
Activity     Low                Low                Low
Fadeouts     None expected      None expected      None expected
10.7cm/SSN   110/60             100/48             100/48
COMMENT: Solar activity was low over the last 24 hours with only 
a C2.0 class event from region 772 at 0304UT. Solar wind speed 
gradually decreased from 380km/s to be 320km/s at the time of 
this report. The north-south component of the interplanetary 
magnetic field (Bz), fluctuated between +/-3nT over the entire 
UT day. Further C-class events are expected for the next few 
days, with no sizable change in sunspot size or magnetic complexity 
of any of the regions currently on disk.

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.

Estimated AFr/Ap Indices 10 Jun : A

11 Jun    10    Quiet to Unsettled 
12 Jun    10    Quiet to Unsettled 
13 Jun     8    Quiet to Unsettled 
COMMENT: Quiet geomagnetic conditions observed over the last 
24 hours. Quiet to Unsettled conditions possible for the next 
3 days due to the chance of a faint shock arrival from the
partial halo CME on 08June.

Date   T index
10 Jun    34

Observed Australian Regional MUFs
   Equatorial PNG Region:
      Near predicted monthly values during local day,
      Depressed by 25% during local night.
   Northern Australian Region:
      Near predicted monthly values.
   Southern Australian and New Zealand Region:
      Near predicted monthly values.
   Antarctic Region (Casey/Scott Base):
      Enhanced by 40% over the UT day.

Predicted Monthly T index for June:  26

4B. AUSTRALIAN REGION IONOSPHERIC FORECAST

13 Jun    30    near predicted monthly values 
COMMENT: Good HF conditons observed for the last 24 hours,
with similar conditions expected for 11Jun. Southern Aus/NZ
region MUFs may experience some isolated depressed periods
on 12Jun-13Jun, but generally good HF conditions are expected
over all regions.
