  • full halo cme produced by x1.9 solar flare january 18 2026

    Solar radiation storm in progress following long-duration X1.9 flare and Earth-directed CME

    ByTeo Blašković Monday, January 19, 2026Monday, May 4, 2026

    Following an X1.9 flare and associated full-halo coronal mass ejection (CME) late on January 18, 2026, the ≥10 MeV proton flux rose above 100 pfu early on January 19. The event reached S2 – Moderate solar radiation storm levels, prompting extended warnings for continued elevated radiation conditions through the rest of the day.

    Solar radiation storm reaches S2 levels, strong M5.6 solar flare erupts from AR 4046

    ByTeo Blašković Tuesday, April 1, 2025Monday, May 4, 2026

    A strong M5.6 solar flare erupted from Active Region 4046 at 07:55 UTC on April 1, 2025, producing a 10cm radio burst but showing no signs of an associated coronal mass ejection (CME). Meanwhile, a solar radiation storm triggered by the X1.1 flare on March 28 reached the S2 – Moderate threshold at 02:05 UTC today.

    Solar radiation storm reaches S2 – Moderate level following farside eruption

    ByTeo Blašković Friday, November 22, 2024Monday, May 4, 2026

    A strong solar flare erupted well beyond the west limb of the Sun at approximately 18:00 UTC on November 21, 2024. This event produced a large coronal mass ejection (CME) and sparked a solar radiation storm on Earth reaching S2 – Moderate levels on November 22.

    Solar radiation storm reaches S2 – Moderate levels following X1.8 flare on October 26

    ByTeo Blašković Sunday, October 27, 2024Monday, May 4, 2026

    A solar radiation storm reached S2 – Moderate levels on October 27, 2024, following a powerful X1.8 flare on October 26. Elevated levels of high-energy protons are expected to persist, potentially impacting high-altitude flights, satellite operations, and polar radio communications.

    Major X1.8 solar flare produces Earth-directed CME, impact expected late October 10

    ByTeo Blašković Wednesday, October 9, 2024Wednesday, October 9, 2024

    A major solar flare measuring X1.8 erupted from Earth-facing Active Region 3848 at 01:56 UTC on October 9, 2024. The event started at 01:25 and ended at 02:43 UTC. A fast-moving full halo coronal mass ejection (CME) was produced during the event, with the impact expected from late October 10 to early on October 11.

    Strong solar radiation storm in progress after M9.7 solar flare produced large CME

    ByTeo Blašković Saturday, June 8, 2024Monday, May 4, 2026

    A strong, long-duration solar flare measuring M9.7 erupted from Active Region 3697 at 01:49 UTC on June 8, 2024. The event started at 01:23 and ended at 02:19 UTC, producing a strong CME. Shortly after, solar radiation storming began on Earth, reaching the S3 – Strong threshold at 08:00 UTC.

    ByTeo Blašković Tuesday, January 30, 2024Wednesday, September 25, 2024

    Following the M6.7 solar flare from Active Region 3559 on January 29, 2024, enhanced proton levels were recorded, with the greater than 10 MeV reaching the S2 – Moderate threshold and greater than 100 MeV peaking at 0.67 pfu.
