[quote:Spittin'Cesium:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzM2NDkxNTU1Xzc2Rjc5RDFE] [quote:TS66:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzM2NDkwODY1X0VEQkUzQUU4] Hey there Cesium :hi: Check out the SR in the SE ..... starting to look interesting. 68 is still in good shape, but not a lot of risk, and the new one in the NE shows potential with some magnetic development. Not too bad for an otherwise uneventful day ... [/quote] Thank you for that 66! I just took a look at the Solen and SDO - I have hopes for 1686 once in NiNz Corner(South-West)and if 1687 could literally pull herself together we'd have a beast(not much chance of that though!) But Aye',North-East and South-East(tinee region). 1689 is showing some growth - http://www.solen.info/solar/images/AR_11689_20130304_2345.jpg http://www.solen.info/solar/images/AR_11689_20130305_2345.jpg . Thank you 66 - I've not long been online so the catch-up was appreciated muchly:wink: Solen Rundown - '[b]The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled on March 5. Solar wind speed at SOHO ranged between 331 and 415 km/s. Solar flux measured at 20h UTC on 2.8 GHz was 118.4 (increasing 15.2 over the last solar rotation). The Potsdam WDC planetary A index was 4 (STAR Ap - based on the mean of three hour interval ap indices: 4.4). Three hour interval K indices: 31111111 (planetary), xxxxxxxx (Boulder). The background x-ray flux was at the class B3 level. At midnight UTC the visible solar disk had 8 spotted active regions (in 2K resolution SDO images). Region 11681 [N17W42] was quiet and stable. Region 11683 [S16E03] decayed slowly and quietly. Region 11685 [S17E25] decayed slowly and quietly. Region 11686 [S13W61] lost the magnetic delta structure after the M flare. C flares are possible as there still is polarity intermixing. Flare: M1.2 at 07:54 UTC. Region 11687 [N09E39] was quiet and stable. Region 11689 [S18E57] developed slowly and quietly. Spotted regions not numbered by SWPC: New region S2269 [S30E24] emerged with a penumbra spot. New region S2270 [N03W15] emerged with a penumbra spot. An active region 4-5 days behind the northeast limb produced a flare at 04:26 UTC. A large full halo CME was observed afterwards[/b]' '[b][i]Forecast The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled on March 6-7 due to possible effects from CH558 and quiet on March 8[/i][/b]'http://www.solen.info/solar/ . Also 66,you seen they still have the comments on the non-regions SWPC has weighted,they are still there. 84 - part of AR 11681 should be deleted. 88 - part of AR 11685, region should be deleted.

We have just had another huge X flare measuring at a X8.2 originating from sunspot 2673
On September 11, 2017
[

ALL flares recorded ARE Earth facing regardless of where the sunspot is located
-----------
CME FROM X9 HAS ARRIVED!
Issue Time: 2017 Sep 07 2242 UTC
WARNING: Geomagnetic Sudden Impulse expected
Valid From: 2017 Sep 07 2255 UTC
Valid To: 2017 Sep 07 2330 UTC
IP Shock Passage Observed: 2017 Sep 07 2229 UTC
On September 6th we have had 2 X flares! A X2.2 at 09:10 utc & a secend larger flare just a few hours later of X9.3 at 12:02 utc. There is a large widespread Earth directed CME associated with this latest X flare as we can see here

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!
