A large filament erupted on the southeast quadrant of the Sun during the early morning UTC hours of November 22, 2015. The eruption began at approximately 07:30 UTC and launched a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space. Although LASCO coronagraph imagery is still…
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…
A strong solar flare measuring M3.9 at its peak erupted from Region 2449 at 13:12 UTC on November 9, 2015. The event started at 12:49 and ended at 13:28 UTC. A bright Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was produced. The event was associated with a Type II (estimated…
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…
A long duration solar flare measuring M3.7 at its peak erupted from geoeffective Region 2443 at 13:52 UTC on November 4, 2015. The event started at 13:31 and ended at 14:13 UTC. Radio signatures suggest a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was produced. The event was…
A moderately strong solar flare measuring M1.9 erupted from Region 2445 at 03:26 UTC on November 4, 2015. The event started at 03:20, and ended at 03:29 UTC. A Type II Radio Emission with peak velocity of 790 km/s was associated with the event. Type II emissions…
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…
After four days of increased solar activity, multiple Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) were finally observed as a part of an overarching set of coronal disruptions from the vicinity of Region 2420 and stretching southward towards Region 2422, and towards the western…
