Solar activity is now at moderate levels with a short duration M2.4 Solar Flare around Sunspot 1513 located in the northeast quadrant on June 28. This region continues to show signs of growth. No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections was released. There is R1 Radio

A fast-moving CME that left the Sun on June 14th is expected to scoop up another CME already en route and deliver a double-blow to Earth's magnetic field on June 16th. Weak-to-moderate geomagnetic storms are possible when the clouds arrive.A long duration solar

Another long duration, moderate, M1.9 solar flare erupted from Sunspot 1504 on June 14, 2012. A 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare) was recorded measuring 1400sfu and lasted for 103 minutes. The plasma cloud generated looks to be Earth directed and may impact Earth by

A long duration solar flare eruption measuring M1.2 took place at 13:10 UTC Wednesday, June 13, 2012. The flare was centered around Sunspot 1504. Associated was Type IV Radio Emission and a 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare). The event lasted nearly 2 hours. Sunspot 1504

Solar eruptions are on the rise as the Sun progresses toward the peak of its roughly 11-year-long activity cycle, now expected in mid-2013. Sun produced powerful solar flare rated as X5.4 (based on the peak intensity of its X-rays) on March 7, 2012. During a

New sunspot 1496 unleashed an impulsive M3-Class solar flare on June 3rd at 17:55 UTC. The explosion hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space. The cloud does not appear to be heading for Earth, although this conclusion could be revised by further analysis.

On May 17, 2012 a moderate-sized M-class flare erupted from the Sun and sent out a barrage of high-energy solar particles that belied its initial intensity.These particles traveled at nearly the speed of light, crossing the 93 million miles between the Sun and Earth

The proton levels reached S1 Minor Radiation Storm threshold today. The Solar X-Rays also detected a long duration C-Class event during the early hours of Sunday morning and this generated a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). It appears that the plasma cloud was directed

A strong solar flare reaching M5.1 took place at 01:47 UTC Thursday morning. The flare was centered around Sunspot 1476 near the northwest limb. A bright CME was generated but because of the spots location, the plasma cloud will be headed mostly to the west.The
