the FOX news crawler says 'the biggest in years"...

wasn't there a carrington sized event, in july 2012 ??
that just missed us by a week ??

and this one, is bigger than that ????

They are pushing the fear factor, which has got my attention, usually they don't report until days have went by. I'll be interested to see the stats in the morning not sure how I feel about this event without exact numbers, lots of ins and outs.lol

conflicting speed has it coming anytime between tomorrow and friday evening.

Major Solar Flare and CME
Geoeffective Sunspot 2158 produced a strong solar flare Wednesday afternoon measuring X1.6 at 17:45 UTC. The event event was associated with a Type II Radio emission with an estimated velocity of 3750 km/s. This is indicative of a strong coronal mass ejection. Updated coronagraph imagery shows a full halo coronal mass ejection (CME) heading into space and directed towards Earth. More information on this below. Proton levels streaming past Earth are on the rise and a Minor Radiation Storm is now in progress.

Wow, kudos to everybody here! Great job of covering this event! (Where's NINzrez???) I have very little to add at this point. I was singing and begging near Independence Hall today when the eruption occurred. I just spent the last hour reading all of your posts.

One point of clarification--the speed of the radio emission (shockwave) of 3750 km/s is NOT the speed of the CME. We've been confused by this in the past. CACTus clocks the CME avg. speed at 679 km/s, which I believe is an underestimated figure. I have a calculator for the STEREO images, but I haven't seen any yet.

This CME is 100% Earth-directed and probably traveling more than 1100 km/sec. It will most likely have a stronger impact due to the M4.5 CME clearing a path ahead of it. If we get another big CME soon, we could see a major cannibalism event. Both 2157 and 2158 are both in a very geoeffective position for the next 5-7 days. The GOES Proton readings show us just how powerful that backside event was last week---I believe now that it was an X18 or better!

A protonic sunspot with high energy potential always has high speed particle affiliates that arrive shortly after the speed of light photonic flare, usually shows a big particle event is imminent. Like I posted earlier this could be a big , fast protonic buildup.

I think 'civilization' can survive an X1 flare, but a nice aurora show should be visible in Southern Oregon, especially in dark skies. That would make this boring world more interesting I think. Aurora should be visible in Mass., Michigan, New York state, upstate Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and maybe as far south as Colorado, Arkansas, and Virginia.

Re: SOLAR WATCH * Huge X8.2 Flare Sept. 10, 2017! (Updated Daily)
AURORA SEASON HAS STARTED-

September kicks off more than football - it's aurora season!

Autumn is special in part because pleasant evenings tempt skywatchers outside to watch the skies. However, autumn really does produce a surplus of geomagnetic storms -- almost twice the annual average.

The aurora is caused by energized particles (protons and electrons) that travel along the Earth's magnetic field and come crashing into the Earth's atmosphere near the north and south pole, and collide with the atmospheric constituents of nitrogen and oxygen. The molecular nitrogen and atomic oxygen absorb some of the energy from the collision and then release it in the form of light. The colors and intensity of the light form the aurora.

The violet and blues lines are dominated by emissions from ionized molecular nitrogen (N2+), the green line at 557.7 nm and the red lines near 630 nm by emissions from atomic oxygen (O), and the red lines above 640 nm by emissions from molecular nitrogen (N2).

many times.

the most famous 'recent' event is probably the Halloween storms of 2003

via spaceweather archive..

10-28-03

EXTREME SOLAR ACTIVITY: One of the most powerful solar flares in years erupted from giant sunspot 486 this morning at approximately 1110 UT. The blast measured X17 on the Richter scale of solar flares. As a result of the explosion, a strong S3-class solar radiation storm is underway. Click here to learn how such storms can affect our planet. The explosion also hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) toward Earth. When it left the sun, the cloud was traveling 2125 km/s (almost 5 million mph). This CME could trigger bright auroras when it sweeps past our planet perhaps as early as tonight.

STORM IN PROGRESS: An extreme geomagnetic storm is in progress. Sky watchers at all latitudes should be alert for auroras after nightfall. Meanwhile, another powerful solar flare (X11-class) has erupted from giant sunspot 486. Stay tuned for details.

11-02-03

X-FLARE: Another remarkable solar flare has erupted from giant sunspot 486--an X8-class blast at 1725 UT on Nov. 2nd

11-03-03

Also on Nov. 3rd a pair of X-flares have erupted near sunspot 488--at 0130 UT (X2.7) and at 0955 UT (X4.4).

11-04-03

MEGA-FLARE: Giant sunspot 486 unleashed yet another powerful solar flare today (Nov. 4th, 1950 UT), and this one could be historic. The blast saturated X-ray detectors onboard GOES satellites at X17.4 for 11 minutes. The last time such a thing happened in 2001 the flare was classified as an X20--the biggest ever.

11-06-03 (finally determined to be X28)

SUPERFLARE: Astronomers won't soon forget Nov. 4th, 2003--the day of the biggest explosion ever recorded in our solar system. The blast originated from giant sunspot 486, and on the Richter scale of solar flares, it measured X28.

Magnetogram sure looks off. Seems awfully early for either CME.
Anybody know what's up?

I saw that, I think its the start of the M flare, coming in with the end of CH wind.

G3 watch for Friday night guys

WATCH: Geomagnetic Storm Category G3 Predicted
Highest Storm Level Predicted by Day:
Sep 12: G2 (Moderate) Sep 13: G3 (Strong) Sep 14: G1 (Minor)

So basically G2 expected with a somewhat "glancing blow" CME impact from M4.5 at 9/11 18:00UTC +/- 6h

and G3 expected with direct core CME impact from X1.6 at 9/12 18:00UTC +/- 6h

yw..btw..I just noticed something about a link I posted on the other thread. It lists all the X-flares that happened between 10-26 and 11-4

[link to cdaw.gsfc.nasa.gov]

there were two X-flares prior to the X-17 and a total of 8 X-flares in 9 days.

1. X1.2
2. X1.2
3. X17
4. X10
5. X8.3

6. X2.7
7. X3.9
8. X28
