SUMMARY FOR 07 NOVEMBER AND FORECAST FOR 08 NOVEMBER - 10 NOVEMBER
STATUS INDICATORS SOL:GREEN   MAG:GREEN     ION: GREEN
-----------------------------------------------------------
1A. SOLAR SUMMARY
Activity 07 Nov:  Very low

Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 07 Nov:  70/5


1B. SOLAR FORECAST
             08 Nov             09 Nov             10 Nov
Activity     Very low           Very low           Very low

10.7cm/SSN    70/5               68/2               68/2

COMMENT: Solar activity was Very Low over the UT day 07 November. 
There are currently 0 numbered sunspot regions on the visible 
disc and no active regions are expected to rotate onto the visible 
disc. Very Low solar activity is expected for the next three 
UT days, 08-10 November. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed 
in the available coronagraph imagery. During UT day 07 November, 
the solar wind speed gradually decreased from around 440 km/s 
down to currently around 360 km/s. The total IMF (Bt) reached 
a maximum of 5.7 nT at 07/0412 UT, then began to decrease, currently 
varying between 1-4 nT. The north-south component of the IMF, 
Bz, reached a minimum of -4.2 nT at 07/0149 UT, but is currently 
varying between +/-2 nT. The solar wind speed is expected to 
be at background levels for the next two UT days, 08-09 November, 
but may become moderately enhanced either late on 09 November 
or early on 10 November due to a patchy negative polarity equatorial 
coronal hole.

Geomagnetic field for Australian Region 07 Nov: Quiet

Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 07 Nov : 
      Darwin               0   (Quiet)
      Townsville           0   (Quiet)

      Canberra             0   (Quiet)
      Melbourne           NA

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.

09 Nov     8    Quiet to Unsettled
10 Nov    10    Quiet to Unsettled, with a chance of isolated 
                Active periods

COMMENT: The geomagnetic activity for the Australian region was 
at Quiet levels on UT day 07 November. In the Antarctic regions, 
the geomagnetic activity was at Quiet to Active levels. Global 
geomagnetic activity is expected to be at mainly Quiet levels 
for the next two UT days, 08-09 November, but may increase to 
Unsettled levels either late on 09 November or early on 10 November 
due to weak coronal hole effects. There is a chance of isolated 
Active periods on UT day 10 November.

COMMENT: Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) were near predicted 
monthly values to mildly depressed over most parts of the Australian 
region during UT day 07 November. The Cocos Island, Niue Island 
and Northern Australian regions experienced some periods with 
moderate depressions. Sporadic-E and Spread-F occurrences were 
observed over some sites. Similar HF conditions are expected 
for the next three UT days, 08-10 November.
