COMMENT: Solar activity was very low on UT day 05 June. There 
are two spotted regions on the visible disk, AR2827(N12W54 at 
05/22:55UT) and AR2829(S20E12 at 05/22:55UT). No Earth directed 
CMEs were observed in the available coronagraph images. Solar 
activity is expected to be very low with small possibility of 
C-class activity on UT days 06 to 08 June. On UT day 05 June, 
the solar wind speed varied between 305 and 360 km/s while showing 
a decreasing trend, the IMF (Bt) varied in the range of 3 to 
7 nT and the north-south IMF component (Bz) range was +4/-5 nT. 
The solar wind speed is expected to be mostly near background 
levels for UT day 06 June and most parts of 07 June. Solar wind 
stream may start strengthening from late on 07 June and stay 
moderately strong throughout UT day 08 June due to coronal hole 
effects. A brightening and movement of plasma were observed in 
the south-east quadrant around 19:00 UT (relatively more clearly 
visible in SDO aia 193, 211 and 335 and Halpha Cerro Tololo). 
Whether a CME is associated with it, will be investigated once 
the SOHO images become available for the required time.

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.

07 Jun     7    Mostly quiet,some unsettled periods possible 
                during late hours
08 Jun    15    Unsettled to Active

COMMENT: Geomagnetic conditions in the Australian and the Antarctic 
regions were quiet on UT day 05 June. In the Antarctic region, 
one unsettled and one active period were also observed. Global 
geomagnetic conditions are expected to be mostly quiet during 
UT days 06 to 07 June with the possibility of some unsettled 
periods late on 07 June due to coronal hole effects. This coronal 
hole effect may keep the global geomagnetic activity enhanced 
to unsettled to active levels on UT day 08 June.

COMMENT: MUFs on UT day 04 June were mostly near predicted monthly 
values with some mild depressions in some low latitude regions 
during local day. There were also some enhancements in mid and 
high latitude regions during local night. MUFs are expected to 
be mostly near predicted monthly values on UT days 06 to 07 June. 
Minor to mild MUF depressions on 08 June may be possible due 
to some expected enhancements in geomagnetic activity on this 
day.

COMMENT: MUFs in the Australian region on UT day 05 June were 
mostly near predicted monthly values with some mild depressions 
in the Northern Australian region during the local day. There 
were also some enhancements in the Southern Australian region 
during the local night. MUFs in the Australian region are expected 
to be mostly near predicted monthly values on UT days 06 to 07 
June. Minor to mild MUF depressions on 08 June may be possible 
due to some expected enhancements in geomagnetic activity on 
this day.
