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.

Geomagnetic Forecast

(last updated 25 Apr 2024 23:30 UT)

Date Ap Conditions 26 Apr 8 G0, slight chance G1 27 Apr 12 G0, slight chance G1 28 Apr 10 G0, slight chance G1 COMMENT: G0 geomagnetic conditions were observed in the Australian and Antarctic regions on UT day 25-Apr. Mostly G0 geomagnetic conditions are expected over 26-28 Apr, with a slight chance for G1 conditions on these days due to the expected arrival of a coronal hole high speed wind stream. There is still a slight possibility that recent CMEs from sunspot regions AR3645 or AR3638 may still arrive at Earth, although this is not expected to be significant if it eventuates.
