Region 1967 (S13W12, Fkc/beta-gamma-delta) produced three moderate solar flares in last couple of hours. M3.8 was detected at 01:23 UTC, followed by M1.2 at 03:06 UTC and an impulsive M5.2 at 04:00 UTC.
This region is almost directly facing our planet,
SWPC reported that solar activity continued at moderate levels today as both Regions 1967 (S13E01, Fkc/beta-gamma-delta) and 1968 (N10E03, Ekc/beta-gamma) produced M-class flare activity. These included an M2.6 at 06:34 UTC from Region 1968, an
At 16:11 UTC today Region 1967 (S14E48, Fkc/beta-gamma-delta) unleashed its 13th and strongest M-class solar flare since it returned from the farside of the Sun. The region is rotating toward the center of the disk and is showing a trend of slight growth.
In last 2 days, since it announced its comeback to Earth view on January 27, Region 1967 (S15E60, Fkc/beta-gamma-delta / formerly known as Region 1944) produced 10 M-class solar flares. Current location of the region is not favorable for Earth directed
After two weeks of transiting the farside, old Active Regions 1944 and 1946 are coming back into Earth view. Moderate to high solar activity is possible from January 27 through February 09, 2014.
The comeback was announced by two
Decaying Active Region 1944 erupted impulsive M1.3 solar flare at 21:51 UTC on January 13, 2014. This active region is about to rotate onto the west limb. Active Region 1946 is also about to rotate behind the west limb. Other five visible regions remain
Geoeffective Active Region 1944 (beta-gamma-delta) erupted with major solar flare measuring X1.2 at 18:32 UTC today. The event started at 18:04, peaked at 18:32 and ended at 18:58 UTC. A Type II radio emission was registered at 18:17 UTC with estimated
Huge central region on the Sun, AR 1944 (Fkc/beta-gamma-delta) erupted with strong solar flare measuring M7.2 at its peak time today. The event started at 10:07, peaked at 10:13 and ended at 10:37 UTC. Region 1944 is the largest and most magnetically complex
One of the biggest active regions of this solar cycle, AR 1944 (S08E38, Fkc/beta-gamma-delta), responsible for 6 M-class solar flares in last 4 days, is rotating into more geoeffective position.
The largest event it produced so far was a long
High speed solar speed is creating brief periods of geomagnetic storming. High latitude skywatchers should be alert for auroras.
Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the most of the day. There are 8 active sunspot regions on the Earth side of the
