Solar wind parameters over the past 24 hours were indicative of enhanced solar wind environment, likely caused by a combination of a glancing blow from a slow-moving Coronal Mass Ejection and influences of a negative polarity CH HSS. Total IMF strength was at 5 to 6…
Our planet has entered a stream of fast-moving solar wind flowing from a large positive polarity coronal hole. A G1 – Minor Geomagnetic Storm Watch is in effect for August 31 and G2 – Moderate for September 1. Solar wind parameters reflected a slow regime through…
Next solar cycle – Solar Cycle 25 – is expected to be the lowest in 200 years. The forecast for the next solar cycle says it will be the weakest of the last 200 years. The maximum of this next cycle – measured in terms of sunspot number, a standard measure of…
A several degree long solar filament south of the Region 2741 disappeared by approximately 15:14 UTC on May 13, 2019. Initial analysis suggests an Earth-directed component is likely with this Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). This is the fifth Earth-directed CME since…
An asymmetric full halo CME with a likely Earth-directed component erupted May 6, 2019. The source is still unknown, it is possible this was another stealth CME. Sun's northeastern limb continued exhibiting increased CME activity on May 6 and 7, 2019. This…
A moderately strong solar flare measuring C9.9 erupted from AR 2740 (Beta-Delta) at 05:10 UTC on May 6, 2019. The event started at 05:04 UTC and ended at 05:12 UTC. This is the strongest solar flare since M1.0 at 23:28 UTC on October 20, 2017. A Type II Radio…
An impulsive solar flare measuring C5.6 at its peak time erupted from AR 2736, the source of yesterday's C4.8 and associated asymmetric full-halo CME, at 03:12 UTC on March 21, 2019. The event started at 03:08 and ended at 03:15 UTC. There were no radio…
A solar flare measuring C4.8 at its peak erupted from newly-emerged AR 2736 on March 20, 2019. The eruption started at 10:35, peaked at 11:18 and ended at 11:34 UTC. The region was also responsible for several B-class flares over the past 7 hours. The flare was…
A long-duration solar flare measuring C1.3 at its peak erupted from Region 2734 (Alpha) at 03:19 UTC on March 8, 2019. The event started at 03:07, peaked at 03:19 and ended at 03:58 UTC. This event was associated with a Type II Radio Emission registered at 03:15 UTC…
An isolated, negative polarity Coronal Hole High Speed Stream (CH HSS) is affecting our planet on February 27 and 28, 2019, causing isolated periods of geomagnetic storming. Solar winds over the past 24 hours were indicative of an anticipated Solar Sector Boundary…
