An active region currently positioned behind the northeast limb erupted with two M-class solar flares by 10:19 UTC on December 21, 2015. The first event started at 00:52, peaked at 01:03 as M2.8 and ended at 01:11 UTC. The second event started at 10:09, peaked at…
A halo Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) generated by December 16th C6.6 solar flare has reached our planet on December 19 causing enhanced solar wind conditions, prolonged period of the southward magnetic field and planetary geomagnetic storms reaching G2 Moderate…
Two solar filaments erupted from the SW quadrant of the Sun late November 15 and early November 16 producing a Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) that arrived at Earth at 20:10 UTC on November 18. A G1 – Minor geomagnetic storm is currently in progress. This, combined…
Geomagnetic storm reaching G2 – Moderate levels is currently in progress due to continuous influence from a positive polarity coronal hole. This influence will decrease over the next couple of days, however, the Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) associated with the M3.9…
Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) unleashed by a long duration M3.7 solar flare on November 4 reached our planet at 18:25 UTC on November 6, almost a full day earlier than it was expected. An enhanced magnetic field, coupled with winds speeds approaching 700 km/s have…
Swedish media is reporting air traffic problems due to "solar storm" interfering with air traffic control radar systems during the afternoon of November 4, 2015. It is unclear, however, whether they meant the Solar Radiation Storm or Geomagnetic Storm, two…
Our planet is under the influence of positive polarity coronal hole today which is causing enhanced geomagnetic conditions. Geomagnetic K-index of 6 (G2-Moderate geomagnetic storm) threshold was first reached at 05:17 UTC today. Geomagnetic K-index of 7 (G3 – Strong…

Geomagnetic storm reaching G3 Strong levels is currently in progress as a result of Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) impact on top of Coronal Hole High Speed Stream (CH HSS) influence.The CME, produced by September 18th C-class solar flare, reached our planet at 06:05 UTC on
Our planet's magnetic shield is again under stress today with brief G3 Strong geomagnetic storm levels reached around 09:00 UTC. The storms began on September 7 with positive polarity coronal hole reaching geoeffective position and an impact of plasma filament
The Earth continues to be slammed this week by a huge solar storm that has raged for several days, Dr. Tamitha Skov of the SpaceWeather.TV reports today. It started on September 7 and has kept us at moderate storm conditions nearly continuously since. Spectacular aurora
