• G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm in progress

    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

  • Strong solar flare measuring M6.1 erupts from Region 2222

    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

  • M1.8 solar flare erupts from central region 2222

    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

  • Strong M5.7 solar flare erupted from Region 2209

    A strong solar flare measuring M5.7 at its peak time erupted from Region 2209 on November 16, 2014. The event started at 17:35, peaked at 17:48 and ended at 17:57 UTC.Region 2209 ('beta-gamma-delta') is Old Region 2192, source of six X-class solar flares during

  • Old Region 2192 returns with moderate M3.2 and M3.7 solar flares

    Old Region 2192, now numbered 2209 ('beta-gamma'), has returned on the Earth side of the Sun, with moderately strong M3.2 solar flare on November 15, 2014. The latest event from this region started at 11:40, peaked at 12:03 and ended at 12:10 UTC.A 10cm Radio Bu

  • A timelapse of the late October solar activity

    Awesome time-lapse video features show 15 days of solar action from October 14th to 30th, 2014, showing sunspot AR 2192, the largest sunspot of the last two solar cycles or more than two decades. During the transition time Sunspot 2192 produced six X-class and 37 M-clas

  • CME generated by X1.6 solar flare to arrive on November 10

    A partial halo Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was generated by major X1.6 solar flare on November 7, 2014.WSA/ENLIL modeling of the event shows a partially Earth-directed component that is expected to impact the geomagnetic field early to midday on November 10 causing acti
