• Large equatorial coronal hole causing major geomagnetic storming

    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…

  • Impulsive M7.6 solar flare erupts from Region 2422

    An impulsive solar flare measuring M7.6 erupted at 14:58 UTC on September 28, 2015 from geoeffective Active Region 2422. The event started at 14:53, and ended at 15:03 UTC. There were no radio signatures that would suggest a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was produced duri

  • Impulsive M3.6 solar flare erupts from Region 2423

    An impulsive solar flare measuring M3.6 at its peak time erupted at 03:55 UTC on September 28, 2015 from Active Region 2423 located near the west limb. The event started at 03:45 and ended at 03:59 UTC. Impulsive solar flares usually don't produce Coronal Mass Eject

  • M1.9 solar flare erupts from Sun’s central region 2422

    Active Region 2422, located almost at the center of the solar disk, erupted with M1.9 solar flare at 10:40 UTC on September 27, 2015. The event started at 10:20 and ended at 10:46 UTC.This region has 'Beta-Gamma-Delta' magnetic configuration and is capable of pr
