A long-duration solar flare measuring M7.1 at its peak erupted from Active Region 4324 at 13:51 UTC on December 31, 2025. The event started at 13:12 and ended at 14:11 UTC.
A coronal mass ejection (CME) associated with an M4.2 solar flare from Region 4317 is expected to produce a G1 – Minor geomagnetic storm as it grazes Earth late on December 31 into early January 1, 2026.
A major solar flare measuring X1.1 erupted from Active Region 4298 at 05:01 UTC on December 8, 2025. The event started at 04:49 and ended at 05:04 UTC.
A strong solar flare measuring M8.1 erupted from Active Region 4299 at 20:39 UTC on December 6, 2025. The event started at 20:29 and ended at 20:49 UTC. A full-halo coronal mass ejection was produced, with impact expected early to midday on December 9, potentially causing periods of G3 – Strong geomagnetic storming.
A major solar flare registered as X1.9 erupted from Active Region 4299 at 02:49 UTC on December 1, 2025. The event started at 02:27 and ended at 03:05 UTC. This region is currently making its second run through the Earth-side of the Sun, after producing multiple X-class flares in early November.
A major long-duration solar flare measuring X4.0 erupted from Active Region 4274 at 08:30 UTC on November 14, 2025, producing a fast CME. The event started at 07:44 and ended at 08:40 UTC.
A major solar flare registered as X5.1 erupted from Active Region 4274 at 10:04 UTC on November 11, 2025. The event started at 09:49 UTC and ended at 10:17 UTC.
Active Region 4274 produced its second X-class solar flare since it emerged from the far side last week, this time peaking as X1.2 at 09:19 UTC on November 10, 2025. This is now the third X-class flare since the November 4 X1.8 and X1.1. A coronal mass ejection (CME) was associated with the latest event and is expected to have an Earth-directed component.
A major long-duration solar flare measuring X1.7 erupted from Active Region 4274 at 07:35 UTC on November 9, 2025, producing an assymetric halo CME with impact expected around 12:00 UTC on November 11. The event started at 07:01 and ended at 07:55 UTC.
Solar activity reached high levels on November 5, 2025, as Region 4274 (N24E40) produced two powerful M-class flares – an M7.4 at 11:19 UTC and an M8.6 at 22:07 UTC. The full-halo CME from the first event is expected to reach Earth late November 6 to early November 7, likely producing G3 – Strong geomagnetic storm conditions and visible auroras across Canada and the northern United States.
