A moderate solar flare measuring M2.2 at its peak time erupted from Active Region 2249 at 02:16 UTC on December 27, 2014. The event started at 02:03 and ended at 02:24 UTC.Region 2249 has 'beta-gamma' magnetic configuration, it is still growing and is located ne
According to the SWPC, the ACE satellite observed a pair of discontinuities in the solar wind field during the past 24 hours. The first discontinuity at 02:35 UTC on December 21 was weak and possibly indicated the arrival of a glancing blow from the December 17th Corona
A major solar flare measuring X1.8 (R3-Strong Radio blackout) at its peak time erupted from Region 2242 ('beta-gamma-delta') at 00:28 UTC on December 20, 2014. The event started at 00:11 and ended at 00:55 UTC.A Type II radio emission with an estimated velocity
Auroras are the most visible manifestation of the Sun’s effect on Earth, but many aspects of these spectacular displays are still poorly understood. Thanks to ESA’s Cluster and NASA’s Image satellites working together, a particular type of very high-la
A strong solar flare measuring M6.9 (R2-Moderate Radio blackout) at its peak time erupted from geoeffective Active Region 2241 at 21:58 UTC on December 18, 2014. The event started at 21:41 and ended at 22:25 UTC.This region is located at the center of the solar disk and
A very strong solar flare measuring M8.7 at its peak time (R2 – Moderate Radio blackout) erupted from geoeffective Active Region 2242 ('beta-gamma-delta') at 04:50 UTC today. This was a long duration event which started at 04:25 and ended at 05:20 UTC. The event
An impulsive solar flare measuring M1.5 at its peak time erupted early on December 13, 2014, from a region rotating around the SE limb. The event started at 05:13, peaked at 05:20 and ended at 05:25 UTC.This new region shows a good potential for increased solar activity
NOAA/SWPC issued G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm alert early on December 7 due to the high speed solar wind stream originating from a geoeffective coronal hole in the Sun's southern hemisphere. Geomagnetic K-index of 5 (G1 – Minor) threshold was reached at 01:24 UTC to
A long duration solar flare measuring M6.1 (R2-Moderate) at its peak time erupted on December 4, 2014 from Region 2222. The event started at 18:05, peaked at 18:25 and ended at 18:56 UTC.This is a second M-class solar flare today from 'beta-gamma' classified Reg
A moderately strong solar flare measuring M1.8 at its peak time erupted at 06:41 UTC on December 1, 2014. The event started at 06:26 and ended at 06:59 UTC.A 10cm Radio Burst lasting 6 minutes (peak flux 180 sfu) was associated with the event. This indicates that the el
