This region is in a good Earth facing position and a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is now visible. A portion of the cloud looks to be Earth directed. More updates to follow. http://www.solarham.net/index.htm [/quote] Looks like ETA late on the 12th http://www.solarham.net/cmewatch2.htm [/quote] It will hit at the same time as the planetary allignments SO was talking about,may make things all the more interesting. [/quote] Hi Shad, how are you? By the way, am I crazy or did we get schoooled a while back that it was footpoint, not footprint? or are we just overriding and sticking with footprint? lol [/quote] I'm doing good Isis,yeah I'm sticking with the footprint as thats what I was taught,but it may be footpoint. Hopefully people will be nice enough to know what we're talking about and go with it'lol [/quote] http://solarscience.msfc.nasa.gov/papers/moorerl/MooreSterling2007.pdf Heres one of the earlier papers I read on solar energy,dimming coronal footprints, thats why that term has always stuck with me. [/quote] Thanks for that background. I just didn't remember too much debate about it back when it first came up so I didn't know that both terms were basically being used, thanks, I personally like footprint too. [/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
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!
