COMMENT: Solar activity on UT day 09-Jun was at the R0 level, 
with no notable solar flares. There are currently five numbered 
sunspot regions on the solar disk. Four of these showed spot 
development over the UT day, AR4105 (S16W06, beta), AR4107 (S16W26, 
beta), AR4109 (S17E10, beta) and AR4110 (N04E14, beta), although 
none are magnetically complex or have recent flaring history. 
The other region, newly numbered AR4111 (N14E67, alpha) was stable 
over the 24 hour period. Solar activity is expected to be at 
the R0 level over 10-12 Jun with a chance of R1. S0 solar radiation 
storm conditions were observed on UT day 09-Jun. S0 solar radiation 
storm conditions are expected over 10-12 Jun. Several faint and 
slow CMEs were observed on 09-Jun, but none are considered geoeffective. 
The solar wind speed on UT day 09-Jun was mostly steady mostly 
ranging between 400 to 545 km/s, and is currently near 450 km/s. 
The peak total interplanetary field strength (IMF, Bt) was 12 
nT and the north-south IMF component range was +10 to -8 nT. 
The solar wind environment is expected to slowly trend towards 
background conditions on 10-Jun. An increase is expected late 
on 11-Jun due to high speed wind stream effects from a small 
equatorial coronal hole, approaching a geoeffective position.

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.

10 Jun    10    G0
11 Jun    12    G0, chance of G1

COMMENT: G0 geomagnetic conditions were observed in the Australian 
region on UT day 09-Jun. Mostly G0 geomagnetic conditions were 
observed in the Antarctic region, with G2 conditions observed 
at Mawson. G0 geomagnetic conditions are generally expected over 
10-12 Jun, with a chance of G1 conditions on 11-Jun due to anticipated 
high speed wind stream effects from an equatorial coronal hole, 
approaching a geoeffective location.

COMMENT: HF radio propagation conditions on 09-Jun were degraded 
at high latitudes and mostly normal at low and mid latitudes. 
HF radio conditions are expected to improve towards normal conditions 
on 10-11 Jun, with some degradations possible late on 11-Jun 
and on 12-Jun due to possible geomagnetic activity.

and is current for 9-10 Jun. Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) 
in the Australian region on UT day 09-Jun were near predicted 
values to 25% depressed during local night hours. Depressions 
during daylight hours were also observed in the southern Australian 
region. Spread-F was observed at Hobart and Canberra during local 
night and dawn hours. MUFs in the Australian region over 10-Jun 
are expected to be near predicted monthly values to depressed 
by up to 20%. Conditions are expected to improve towards monthly 
predicted values over 11-12 Jun.
