• Sunspot 1564 unleashed another solar flare reaching M1.2

    Sunspot 1564 produced M1.2 solar flare at 22:36 UTC on September 9. It is not appeared to be Earth-directed.Another M class event was recorded day earlier. Sunspot 1564 produced an M1.4 long duration flare peaking at 17:59 UTC on September 8. CACTus reported

  • Geomagnetic storming levels back to normal

    Geomagnetic storming reached the G2 (Moderate) level at high latitudes again early today. Bright auroras could be seen around Arctic Circle. It was sparked by one of two coronal mass ejections observed on September 2.  Solar radiation storm levels have returned to

  • Minor solar radiation storm in progress

    High levels of low energetic protons are recorded streaming past Earth causing minor S1 solar radiation storm. Proton event 10MeV Integral Flux exceeded 10 pfu.  Minor impacts on HF radio are possible around polar regions.Elevated solar radiation storm levels are

  • Moderate solar flare reaching M1.3 peaked at 12:11 UTC

    A moderate solar flare reaching M1.3 peaked on August 30, 2012. This event started at 12:02, peaked at 12:11 UTC and ended at 12:14. The source of this solar flare was new sunspot rotating into view off the eastern limb.There is 15% chance of another M-class, and 1%

  • Two more M-class events from Region 1548 – M 1.8 and M 2.0

    After today’s strong M5.5 solar flare at 01:02 UTC another two moderate class solar flares erupted. On August 18, 2012 at 03:23 UTC new Active Region 1548 erupted with M1.8 solar flare followed by M2.0 at 16:27 UTC.More M-class events are expected from Region 1548.

  • New active region produced strong M5.5 solar flare

    A new Active Region off the northeastern limb is really active and is crackling with M-class solar flares. Latest strong solar flare, reaching M5.5, occurred at 01:02 UTC on August 18. It did not produce Earth-directed CME.New active region is numbered as 1547
