I'm definitely feeling more educated than I was earlier. Much thanks to all of you, especially OP, for providing links and updates and commentary to this event. Being that this has been a nearly shill-free environment, I'd have to say the whole gang knows their shit and I have mad respect for all of you! I'm still hungry for knowledge so can you tell me what the electrons going down could mean? Thanks to all once again! Peace!!! [/quote] I've been lurking 8 hours a day for a year and still don't get it. Talk about solar [u]density[/u]. I agree Clovis. Have to just sit back in awe, listen and learn. Good people. [/quote] Remember to always ask questions. I am still learning and I wouldn't understand some things without asking for clarification! Sometimes you think you understand something only to find out you only understood part of it. Love and Blessings :hf: [/quote] Going forward, I sure will ask questions. I had to establish a knowledge base before I even felt comfortable doing that. Thanks again! [/quote] we have a q&a section on the blog that is a great starting point for any solar observer http://mysolaralerts.blogspot.com/p/solar-q-guides.html after reading the info on the links provided, it is enough to give a good basis for solar knowledge and whats going on for anything you don't understand, we all in this thread encourage everyone to ask questions no such thing as a stupid question :) if were not around it might take a minute to get a answer, but one of us regulars will always pop in and answer what we can [/quote]

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
