  • Long duration M4.5 solar flare erupts from region 2158

    Active Region 2158 produced a long duration M4.5 solar flare on September 9, 2014. The event started at 23:12, peaked at 00:29 and ended at 01:31 UTC. A Type II (999 km/s) and IV radio emissions as well as 10cm Radio Burst were associated with the event. Coronal Ma

  • Moderate M1.1 solar flare erupted from Region 2157

    Active Region 2157 unleashed M1.1 solar flare on September 6, 2014. The event started at 16:50, peaked at 17:09 and ended at 17:22 UTC.This region is located in the southeast quadrant and has 'beta-gamma-delta' magnetic configuration (capable of produc

  • Long duration M2.5 solar flare erupts off the southeast limb

    Active region located behind the southeast limb of the Sun produced a long duration M2.5 solar flare on September 3, 2014. The event started at 13:20, peaked at 13:54 and ended 14:23 UTC.If Coronal Mass Ejection was produced by this event it sho

  • Plasma filament erupts, generates Earth-directed CME

    A large plasma filament located in the northern hemisphere of the Sun erupted between 13:00 and 16:00 UTC on September 2, 2014, generating what appears to be Earth directed Coronal Mass Ejection (CME)​.Although analysis is still not complete SWPC warned&nbsp

  • Major solar flares erupting behind the northeast limb

    A major solar flare was detected behind Sun's northeast limb on September 1, 2014. STEREO Behind spacecraft, watching farside of the Sun, captured what is most likely an X-class solar flare starting at 11:05 UTC.This major solar flare was associa

  • Geomagnetic storm in progress, auroras visible at high latitudes

    Plasma cloud unleashed by M-class solar flare on August 22 reached our planed early Wednesday, August 27. Wind speeds increased from near 280 km/s to 340 km/s while density remained primarily between 5-10 p/cc (protons per cubic centimeter).Active to minor storm (G1) co
