[quote:Spittin'Cesium:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzMzNTI3MTk5XzFGMjJBNDI5] [quote:Hugh M Eye:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzMzNTIxOTU0X0U2NUU5OUZD] I've managed to accumulate over 600 links for solar-related data, reports, press releases, papers, etc. This also includes magnetosphere-related stuff and other outer-space goodies. At this point, it's almost unmanageable, haha. Anyway, I occasionally see a link that I don't remember anything about so I click on it to what was about. Anyway, back on December 28, 2011 I bookmarked this site for future reference. It's called [b]CEDAR-WIKI[/b] and I believe [b]it may be the "Holy Grail" portal for much of the mythical "hidden data".[/b] Some of the data links require you to register (which I haven't done yet) and a lot of stuff here is over my head; but someone out in GLP-land may have the time and wherewithal to navigate the belly of this beast, so I'm putting it out there. CEDAR-Wiki Main Page:http://cedarweb.hao.ucar.edu/wiki/index.php/Main_Page First off, CEDAR stands for [color=darkblue][b]Coupling, Energetics and Dynamics of Atmospheric Regions[/b][/color] and is part of the [b]GLOBAL CHANGE Program[/b] of the National Science Foundation. This web-portal seems to have access to data sites known only to "insiders" of the Scientific/University/Military-Industrial complex. Here's a list of their ground-based instruments: http://cedarweb.hao.ucar.edu/wiki/index.php/Documents:Ground_Based_Instruments And data services instruments: http://cedarweb.hao.ucar.edu/wiki/index.php/Data_Services:Instrument_List I know...it's mind boggling. Of general interest to the viewers of this thread, I found a link here for the [color=darkred]MIT Space Plasma Group[/color] (no, it's not a punk rock band): http://web.mit.edu/space/www/wind/wind.html And I never knew that MIT has up-to-date data on the solar wind (!) from the VOYAGER space probes (last update Sept. 9, 2012!): http://web.mit.edu/space/www/voyager/voyager.html Let me know what kind of data goodies you all can find here--it looks like a bottomless pit from here, LOL. :drevil: [/quote] This is making me drewl and dribble - thank you Hugh,some amazing holes to dig there!

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!
