[quote:Hugh M Eye:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzI3NzU1MzE2XzI5QzQ3NkMz] [quote:Hugh M Eye:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzI3NzU0NzkxX0MwQ0NBNkQx] Two explosive CMEs are visible in both SOHO and STEREO images. First one is at 5 o'clock on the SOHO COR 2 image and the second one seem to have blasted off from the north polar region-it looks very unusual-like a corkscrew. http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov//data/REPROCESSING/Completed/2011/c2/20111021/20111021_2024_c2_512.jpg http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov//data/REPROCESSING/Completed/2011/c2/20111022/20111022_0200_c2_512.jpg Both are visible from STEREO A in a recent image. http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse/2011/10/22/ahead/cor2/512/20111022_003924_d7c2A.jpg Will search for more info. :explosion::alone::abomb: [/quote] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1557208:MV8xMzgyOTUyXzI3NzU0OTUzXzg4RTlBNUZC] http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/realtime/c3/512/ looks a little intense! [/quote] Yessirree, Stereo A+B images show a very bright CME at the top and remnants of the earlier CME which was somewhat Earth-directed. Wow! http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse//2011/10/22/ahead/cor2/512/20111022_023924_d7c2A.jpg http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse//2011/10/22/behind/cor2/512/20111022_025424_d7c2B.jpg The background X-ray flux has also been steadily rising for a few hours now. http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/xray_1m.html [/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!
