A minor (G1) geomagnetic storm watch is now in effect until 03:00 UTC (March 4). An enhanced solar wind stream containing sectors of southward Bz is currently moving past our planet.

Solar activity is now at moderate levels. A new active region turning into view from off the southeast limb produced an M2.4 solar flare at 15:59 UTC (Feb 25). Image by SDO/AIA.

A coronal mass ejection (CME) passed Earth at UTC (Feb 4). A geomagnetic sudden impulse measuring 16 nT was detected by a magnetometer in Boulder, Colorado. So far the impact appears to be fairly mild, however active (Kp4) to minor (G1) storm conditions may be possible today.

At least fifteen M-Flares and one X-Flare produced by AR 4366 on Sunday (Feb 1st)... so far. No Earth directed CMEs appear associated at this time. SolarHam.com

Active sunspot region (AR 4366) is expanding quickly and producing frequent minor C-Flares. A moderate M-Flare will be possible on Saturday. SolarHam.com

Not something you see very often. Lower energy proton levels off the chart and a Severe (S4) radiation storm is currently in progress. solarham.com

A strong solar flare was just observed beyond the southeast limb. Although peaking at M3.3, it was likely stronger because the source is now yet in view. A CME is now just becoming visible and will be directed away from Earth. We will begin to see the source later this week.

A faint halo CME associated with the M8 solar flare on Saturday is Earth directed with a predicted arrival time by December 9th. Moderate (G2) geomagnetic storming will be possible. More to follow in the days ahead. SolarHam.com

The enhanced solar wind environment has prompted a strong (G3) geomagnetic storm warning which is now in effect until 23:59 UTC (Dec 3). Despite the full moon, aurora sky watchers at higher latitudes should be alert for aurora should local weather conditions allow.

A sizable eruption was just observed beyond the northeast limb beginning around 19:45 UTC (Nov 25). The associated CME will be directed away from Earth. Also note the large filament that is currently anchored in place in the NE quadrant.

A coronal mass ejection (CME) that includes a faint halo outline is emerging in updated imagery courtesy of GOES-19 CCOR-1. This appears to be related to farsided activity and is not Earth directed. SolarHam.com
