Observed Regional daily pc3 Indices 03 Feb : 
      Darwin               0   (Quiet)
      Townsville           0   (Quiet)
      Learmonth            0   (Quiet)
      Alice_Springs        0   (Quiet)
      Gnangara             0   (Quiet)
      Canberra             2   (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 Space Environment Research Center, Japan.

Date      Ap    Conditions
04 Feb     5    Quiet 
05 Feb     5    Quiet 
06 Feb     5    Quiet 

COMMENT: Magnetic conditions in the Austrlian region were mainly 
Quiet with some isolated Unsettled periods. Antartic regions 
saw some isolated minor storms levels of actitiy, settling towards 
the end of the UT day. Conditions are expected to remain Quiet 
for the next 3 days.
