Flares: none.

Observed 10.7 cm flux/Equivalent Sunspot Number for 01 Jul:  98/45

COMMENT: Solar activity on UT day 01-Jul was at the R0 level, 
with no significant flaring activity. There are currently five 
spotted sunspot regions on the solar disk, with two new tiny 
spots appearing in the solar south-east quadrant, and AR3042 
(N08W59) appears to have decayed and is now spotless. Region 
AR3040 (S14W59) appears to show some growth in its trailer spots 
as it approaches the west limb. None of these regions are significant 
and all regions currently exhibit a low flare probability and 
have been relatively quiet. Solar activity is expected to be 
at the R0 level over 02-04 Jul. In US GONG imagery a solar filament 
located at N30E20, lifted off the solar disk at around 01/2000UT. 
No Earth-directed CMEs have been observed, with faint narrow 
westward CME activity visible in LASCO C2 imagery, which did 
not seem to be associated with any on disk activity. An isolated 
coronal hole is visible in SDO imagery approaching the solar 
central meridian in the north-east solar quadrant. The solar 
wind speed on 01-Jul ranged between 323 to 366 km/s, The peak 
total interplanetary magnetic field strength (IMF, Bt) was 10 
nT, and the north-south IMF component (Bz) range was +6 to -5 
nT. The total field strength gradually increased during the UT 
day, with some southward fluctuations in the Bz component after 
01/2100UT. The solar wind speed is expected to mostly remain 
at near background levels over 02-04 Jul, with a chance for solar 
wind parameters to become enhanced on 03-Jul due to the possible 
arrival of two recent CMEs.

Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 01 Jul :

      Townsville          NA
      Learmonth            0   (Quiet)

      Canberra             6   (Quiet)
      Hobart               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.

COMMENT: G0 geomagnetic conditions were observed in both the 
Australian and Antarctic regions on UT day 01-Jul. G0 geomagnetic 
conditions are mostly expected in the Australian region over 
02-04 Jul. There is a chance for G1 conditions on 03-Jul due 
to the possible arrival of two recent CMEs.

CMEs.

      Depressed by 20% during local night.
   Northern Australian Region:
      Depressed by 15-25% during local day.
   Southern Australian Region:
      Near predicted monthly values to 15% depressed.
   Antarctic Region (Casey/Scott Base/Davis/Mawson):

4B. AUSTRALIAN REGION IONOSPHERIC FORECAST
Date   T index  MUFs
02 Jul    45    Near predicted monthly values
03 Jul    45    Near predicted monthly values
04 Jul    45    Near predicted monthly values

COMMENT: Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) on UT day 01-Jul were 
variable with MUFs near monthly predicted values to up to 25% 
depressed at times. Spread F was observed during local night 
hours, implying degraded overnight HF communications conditions. 
MUFs are generally expected to be near predicted monthly values, 
with degraded conditions possible 03-04 Jul in association with 
the chance of an increase in geomagnetic activity induced from 
recent CMEs.
