1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 02 Nov:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 02 Nov:  71/6

COMMENT: Solar activity was very low over the UT day 02 November. 
There is currently one simple sunspot, AR 2750(S28E18) but remained 
stable and inactive. Very low solar activity is expected for 
the next three UT days 03-05 November. No Earth-directed CMEs 
were observed in the available coronagraph imagery. During UT 
day 02 November, the solar wind speed was near its background 
levels, varying in the range 340-380 km/s. The total IMF (Bt) 
varied between 2 nT and 4 nT. The north-south component of IMF, 
Bz, varied mainly between +/-3 nT. The solar wind speed is expected 
to be mainly at background to slightly enhanced levels for the 
next three UT days, 03-05 November.

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.

03 Nov     7    Mostly Quiet. Possible occasional Unsettled periods.
04 Nov    10    Quiet to Unsettled
05 Nov    10    Quiet to Unsettled

COMMENT: The geomagnetic activity for the Australian was at Quiet 
level on UT day 02 November. In the Antarctic regions, the geomagnetic 
activity was mostly Quiet. Global geomagnetic activity is expected 
to be mostly at Quiet levels for the next three UT days 03-05 
November with possible Unsettled periods due to weak coronal 
hole effects.

                30%
04 Nov   -35    Near predicted monthly values/depressed 10 to

05 Nov   -35    Near predicted monthly values/depressed 10 to 
                30%

COMMENT: Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) were moderately depressed 
to near predicted monthly values during UT day 02 November. Sporadic-E 
and Spread-F occurrences were observed over some sites. MUFs 
depressions are possible for the the next three UT day,03-05 
November, due to low levels of ionising radiation from the Sun.
