Something is clearly happening, look at it. http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse/2013/03/16/ahead/cor2/1024/20130316_143924_d7c2A.jpg http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse/2013/03/16/ahead/cor2/1024/20130316_155424_d7c2A.jpg http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse/2013/03/16/ahead/cor2/1024/20130316_163924_d7c2A.jpg [/quote] Great find, Da Fuq! I found a violent little ejection from near Region 1691 (I think) at around 14:00z. Strangely, it left no trace on the x-ray flux. It's right near the Earth's magnetic footpoint, so it may add to our high proton levels. STEREO A EUVI Movie (look for eruption on the top left quadrant at 1400z): http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse/2013/03/16/ahead_20130316_euvi_195_512.mpg Earth's magnetic footpoint: http://iswa.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/IswaSystemWebApp/CygnetSubResourceServlet?cygnetId=93×tamp=2013-03-16%2023:59:59¶meter=93&subParameter=2&window=-1 :hiding: [/quote] normaly i would say an eruption this far to the north west would not have much if any effect on Earth. but as you pointed out Hugh, earths magnetic footprint is in just the right spot. and the CME has layed a clear path from the sun to the Earth. this allows 'stuf' to come at Earth faster and easier than normaly this would show up 1st on the proton flux chart for GOES http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/pro_3d.html it is possible that this eruption added to the rise in the proton count because were also seeing the low energy protons rise at ACE http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/ace/EPAMp_24h.html [/quote]

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!
