[quote:Spittin'Cesium:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzMyNzY3MzA1X0RBRUQ4QjVB] I know,I even tried to look through backdoors for a newer version earlier of the NICT Sim. for about a Hour but to no avil - Once again,'Oh well,whatever Nevermind' : ) I was pretty chuffed that I managed to find the CCMC 'BATS 'R' US' Magnetopause and Ionosphere/Fok Ring Sims/Data Pages(pause for loud ringing in the Meteor Scan - Sounded like a Plane coming down!)sorry,back to what I was saying - basically,I think the combination of the BATS 'R' US and Fok Ring Models are easily as good(if not better)than the NICT Simulation for a more overall view of what is going on up there. The NICT just looked brilliant and flowed so well..I think they discontinued it due to newer discoveries about how our Magnetosphere and Ionospheres' actually work,but I am sure that once they are able to reconfigure all the new variables they'll be back up with a better version - NICT being Japanese afterall are all over Solar Sciences,so I do not doubt my previous statement : ) [/quote]

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

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!
