ARLP050 Propagation de K7RA

Because of the holiday last week, Propagation Forecast Bulletin
ARLP049 went out without the usual weekly data at the bottom. The
data appears at the end of this bulletin.

Average daily sunspot numbers rose over 27 points to 48.1. Average
daily solar flux values were up 9 points. Geomagnetic indices were
on the average lower.

Daily solar flux is expected to stay around 80 until December 5,
when it is expected to decline. The predicted planetary A index for
the next five days is 12, 10, 15, 20 and 20. This indicates
recurring geomagnetic disturbance, especially toward the end of this
week.
