1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 05 Jun:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 05 Jun: 111/62


1B. SOLAR FORECAST
             06 Jun             07 Jun             08 Jun
Activity     Low                Low                Low

10.7cm/SSN   110/60             110/60             115/66

COMMENT: Solar activity has been at very low levels during the 
last 24 hours. Only a few B-class events were observed. Solar 
wind speed mostly stayed around 350 km/s during the UT day today. 
The Bz component of IMF mostly varied between +/-5 nT during 
this day. Minor coronal hole effects may keep the solar wind 
stream slightly enhanced during the next three days. Low levels 
of solar activity with the possibility of M-class activity may 
be expected during the next three days.

Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 05 Jun : 
      Darwin              12   (Quiet)
      Townsville           0   (Quiet)

      Gingin               0   (Quiet)
      Canberra             0   (Quiet)

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.

   Cocos Island Region:
      No data available during local day.
      No data available during local night.
   Niue Island Region:
      Near predicted monthly values during local day.
      Depressed by 35% during local night.
   Northern Australian Region:
      Depressed by 20% during local day.
      Depressed by 30% during local night.
   Southern Australian and New Zealand Region:
      Depressed by 20% during local day.
      Depressed by 15% during local night.
   Antarctic Region (Casey/Scott Base/Davis/Mawson):
      Depressed by 15% over the UT day.

Monthly T index:

4B. AUSTRALIAN REGION IONOSPHERIC FORECAST
Date   T index  MUFs
06 Jun    60    15 to 20% below predicted monthly values
07 Jun    60    15 to 20% below predicted monthly values
08 Jun    60    15 to 20% below predicted monthly values

COMMENT: Variable depressions to 35% observed in the Australian 
region due to low EUV levels. Expect nearly similar conditions 
over the next three days. Note MUFs are expected to remain lower 
than predicted due to this decrease in EUV.
