COMMENT: Solar activity on UT day 08-Jun was R0, with no significant 
solar flares. There are currently three numbered sunspots on 
the solar disk. AR4105 (S15E10, beta) has shown some slight growth 
in its leading spots, but decay in its trailing spots. AR4109 
(S16E29, beta) has shown some slight growth but is mostly unchanged 
from yesterday. AR4107 (S19W11, beta) is stable. Solar activity 
is expected to be R0 over 9-11 Jun with a slight chance for R1.
 
Two CMEs were observed on UT day 08-Jun, but neither were considered 
to be geoeffective. The first event from 0324 UT is considered 
too slow to have any impact. The second event from 0724 UT originated 
from a prominence that erupted from the southern solar polar 
and swept out to the east, but is considered farside. 

S0 solar radiation storm conditions were observed on UT day 08-Jun. S0 
solar radiation storm conditions are expected over 09-11 Jun. 

The solar wind on UT day 08-Jun was mildly disturbed due to ongoing 
CME and coronal hole effects. The solar wind speed ranged from 
390 to 450 km/s. The peak total interplanetary field strength 
(IMF, Bt) was 16nT and the north-south IMF component range was 
+12 to -9 nT, with some periods of southward Bz at the end of 
the day. The solar wind environment is expected to slowly trend 
towards background conditions over 9-10 Jun, but may increase 
briefly on late 11-Jun due to an equatorial coronal hole.

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 Jun    10    G0, slight chance G1
10 Jun     8    G0
11 Jun    10    G0, slight chance G1

COMMENT: ASWFC Geomagnetic Warning 42 was issued on 8 June and 
is current for 8-9 Jun. G0 geomagnetic conditions were observed 
in the Australian region on UT day 08-Jun. G0-G1 geomagnetic 
conditions were observed in the Antarctic region. G0 geomagnetic 
conditions are generally expected over 09-11 Jun, however a slight 
chance for G1 is possible at the beginning of UT day 09-Jun due 
to ongoing southward Bz conditions. Further chance of G1 is possible 
by late 11-Jun due to expected coronal hole impacts.

COMMENT: HF radio propagation conditions were degraded in the 
northern hemisphere on UT day 08-Jun, particularly in high latitudes. 
Elsewhere over the globe had patchy conditions ranging from normal 
to fair. HF radio conditions are expected to be mildly degraded 
over 9-10 Jun on an improving trend, but may become further degraded 
on late 11-Jun due to coronal hole activity.

and is current for 9-10 Jun. Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) 
in the Australian region on UT day 08-Jun were near predicted 
values to 35% depressed, particularly in the southern region. 
Spread-F was observed in Perth, Hobart and Canberra during local 
night and dawn hours. Conditions in Hobart were poor. MUFs in 
the Australian region over 09-11 Jun are expected to be initially 
depressed by 20% but improving over the period.
