New sunspot 1496 unleashed an impulsive M3-Class solar flare on June 3rd at 17:55 UTC. The explosion hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space. The cloud does not appear to be heading for Earth, although this conclusion could be revised by further analysis.
Moderate solar flare reaching M3.3 peaked at 17:55 UTC on Sunday, June 3, 2012. The quick flash of light was centered around Sunspot 1493 located in the northern hemisphere. A TenFlare measuring 320pfu was recorded as well.A Type II emission (est 1077 km/s) was also

On May 17, 2012 a moderate-sized M-class flare erupted from the Sun and sent out a barrage of high-energy solar particles that belied its initial intensity.These particles traveled at nearly the speed of light, crossing the 93 million miles between the Sun and Earth
The proton levels reached S1 Minor Radiation Storm threshold today. The Solar X-Rays also detected a long duration C-Class event during the early hours of Sunday morning and this generated a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). It appears that the plasma cloud was directed
A strong solar flare reaching M5.1 took place at 01:47 UTC Thursday morning. The flare was centered around Sunspot 1476 near the northwest limb. A bright CME was generated but because of the spots location, the plasma cloud will be headed mostly to the west.The
Solar activity ranged from low to moderate levels. Region 1476 (N10, L=180, class/area=Fkc/1050 on 09 May) was responsible for almost all x-ray flare activity during the week. It produced a total of 55 C-class flares, 6 M-class flares, and 69 optical
Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from May 11/21:00 UTC to May 12/21:00 UTC: Solar activity has been at low levels for the past 24 hours. Region 1476 (N11W18) continues to be the source region for a majority of the flares, producing nine C-class flares,
Earth is entering the line of fire as the huge sunspot 1476 rotates across the face of the sun into geoeffective position. Sunspot 1476 is crackling with M-class solar flares and its ‘beta-gamma-delta’ magnetic field harbors energy for X-class flares. NOAA/SWPC
A strong solar flare reaching M5.7 was detected around Sunspot 1476 and peaked at 04:18 UTC on Thursday, May 10, 2012. This event generated a 10cm Radio Burst.TenFlare – a 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the
