[quote:shadasonic:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzMyMjgyNjAwXzc0NkY2MkRF] [quote:Hugh M Eye:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzMyMjgyNTUyX0U1NTA0OUVF] NOAA has decided to give TWO numbers to the new active region in the SE in an effort to use up more numbers. It will also serve to bump up the official sunspot number which will plummet when 1520 passes beyond the limb. Both new ARs (1524 & 1525) have been designated as Beta.

An update as to the arrival time of this CME will be added once all data has been reviewed.
The X9.3 flare is the 14th largest X flare ever recorded!
On September 4th we had 7 M flares from fast growing sunspot 2673, with at least 1 large dense Earth directed CME. This CME will arrive late in the day on Wednesday September 6th.
There is now a 25% chance for X flares over the next 24hrs & 71% chance for M flares
We have a Long Duration M2.4 Solar Flare starting
01:05 UTC July 14th 2017
There was a full halo CME observed with this solar flare. The associated CME is Earth Directed. See discussion on the last page for all updates!
