• CME impact causes minor increase in geomagnetic activity

    A geomagnetic sudden impulse, indicating the arrival of the March 23 CME, was observed at the Hartland magnetometer (23 nT) at 20:09 UTC on March 25.

    The geomagnetic field is expected to be at unsettled to active levels (below G1-Minor) early on March 26 as CME

  • Near X-class solar flare and geomagnetic storm – M9.3

    Near X-class solar flare reaching M9.3 erupted from departing Sunspot 1996 on March 12, 2013 at 22:34 UTC.

    This decaying sunspot is located near eastern limb and generated CME was not geoeffective, however, it produced a R2 (Moderate) Solar Flare Radio Blackout

  • Multiple CMEs observed from central region on the Sun

    Solar activity was at moderate levels in last 24 hours (12:30 UTC). Region 1974 (S13W05, Fsc/beta-gamma-delta) continued to exhibit growth and separation in the intermediate spots, and was responsible for the majority of the flare activity throughout the
