• Impulsive M2.9 solar flare erupted from eastern limb

    Moderate M2.9 solar flare erupted at 20:56 UTC on June 23, 2013. The event started at 20:48 UTC and ended at 20:59 UTC. The flare originated from Active Region 1778 that just emerged at eastern limb.

  • Solar wind stream buffers Earth magnetic field

    Earth is currently inside a solar wind stream flowing in from the massive coronal hole on the Sun's northern hemisphere. Elevated solar wind speed (above 600 km/s) combined with a south tilting Bz component of Interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is responsible

  • Moderate solar flare measuring M2.9 erupted from Region 1777

    A moderate solar flare registered as M2.9, at the peak time, erupted from Region 1777 on June 21, 2013. The event started at 02:30 and peaked at 03:14 UTC. A Type IV Radio Emission was associated with the event. Type IV emissions occur in association with

  • Moderate solar flare reaching M5.9 erupted from AR 1762

    Moderate M5.9 solar flare erupted from decaying Actve Region 1762 at 22:49 UTC on June 7, 2013. The event started at 22:11 UTC and ended at 23:04 UTC. This eruption hurled Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) into space, but considering the location of eruption, the plasma

  • Moderate geomagnetic storm in progress (June 7, 2013)

    A moderate G2 Geomagnetic Storm (Kp=6) is currently in progress due the arrival of the fast flow from the low-latitude coronal hole at the northern hemisphere.​ Bz component of Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) has been tipping sharply

  • Moderate solar flare reaching M1.3 erupted from Region 1762

    A moderate solar flare reaching M1.31 erupted from Region 1762 on June 5, 2013. The event peaked at 08:58 UTC. The source was AR 1762 located on the western limb. AR 1762 is still classified with Beta-Gamma-Delta magnetic configuration and will soon rotate

  • Geomagnetic storm still in progress (June 2, 2013)

    The arrival of an interplanetary shock wave on May 31, 2013 caused geomagnetic storming that reached G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storm levels on NOAA/SWPC storm scale during June 1, 2013. The solar wind speed remains elevated above 650 km/s. Currently, geomagnetic

  • Moderate G2 geomagnetic storm in progress (June 1, 2013)

    G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storming has been observed as Earth remains under the influence of a slow-moving Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). This event was not associated with a significant M1.0 solar flare from May 31, 2013 and is likely the result of a disappearing
