Any thoughts and or feed back on this? Nin, Hugh, Tomas? Good morning and Namaste to all. [/quote] especially when it has been tilting south A LOT lately..don`t know [/quote] This first CME was from earlier in the day on the 7th then the one from the X 4.5 flare. Everyone was really expecting them to be more merged. I believe this one was pushed forward by the larger one behind it thus we see the great increase in wind speed, otherwise it would not have gotten here so fast because it did not leave the disk with a plane of sky speed fast eneough to have made it here by its self already. The density just isn't there. Even with a low density this CME could have created a larger storm if it had been oriented from - to + but it is not. Because this CME is charged from + to - it is not able to connect with our magnetic field very well. This was only supposed to be a 6 hr storm. When this bigger one hits later today things are going to change. If you go look at the Stereo C2 images you will see the difference between the first and the second CMEs. [/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!
