and those in the feedback box

and i have major deja vu

i remoted this to get to where i was going i imagine

feedback

That really helped, now I know where the sats are and how to use them, I'd been avoiding that lesson depending on you guys to find the best pics. Lucky time to learn it now that Stereo A and B are on almost opposite sides of the sun..

and finding how unreliable the gov't "experts" are at reporting..

The chimps are either underpaid or overworked, or trying to pull something.. Great catch we should sue them for misrepresentation of data..

maybe the date they made the story was the 25th, idk..

i posted on Kevin's forum to give him the head's up..

a response i got from a solarham user was..

The "Pick of the Week" is always released on a Friday. So, this pick was released on Friday the 25th, describing an event that took place on Monday the 21st.

thanks for getting that info OE :)

1st time in days the xray flux is actually starting to look like there might be some activity going on
not just the little spike this time

Here we go again....

Thanks for all your hard work --- heard you were
a little under the weather... Hoping you are now all-good

What works for me is 1/2 teaspoon or 1 teaspoon of baking soda in 4 to 6oz of water 3x or 4 xa day and all is good within 12-18hrs---I also add 2 table spoons of lemon juice to give a boost to work quickly. so 2 a day with NO lemon-juice and twice (2) with lemon juice
Try it sometime. Works marvelously for me

is it significant?

We had x-flare i think last Feb 15th, nothing happened. Another x-flare March 10th and bing was the 9m Japan earthquake. Are we looking at a big one here or is it just slightly above normal?

Didn't we just get a medium C-flare a few hours ago?

yes, but since the activity since March 7 has been so active C flares are sort of insignificant except for the long duration ones..

thanks so much
I'm feeling horrible today, so i will give this a try now

Not significant because it stopped at a C1.9
not big at all

SDF Number 089 Issued at 2200Z on 30 Mar 2011

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 29/2100Z to 30/2100Z: Solar activity remained at low levels. Isolated B- and C-class flares were observed from Region 1176 (S17W37) and Region 1183 (N15E27). Region 1176 showed magnetic simplification and was classified as an Fso group with a beta magnetic structure. Region 1183 showed a minor increase in spot count and area and was classified as an Eai group with a beta magnetic structure. Two filaments disappeared during the period. The first was 9 degrees in
extent, centered near N48E16, and disappeared early in the period. The second was 7 degrees in extent, centered near S27E21, and disappeared around mid-period. There was no significant CME activity associated with either disappearance. A back-sided partial-halo CME was observed early in the period, first visible in SOHO/LASCO C2 images at 29/2024Z, with an estimated plane-of-sky velocity of 1075
km/sec. The source of the CME was an active region about a day beyond the northeast limb. No new regions were numbered.

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low during the period (31 March - 02 April) with a chance for moderate activity (isolated M-class).

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 29/2100Z to 30/2100Z:
Geomagnetic activity was at quiet to active levels. An active period was observed during 30/0000 - 0300Z, followed by quiet levels for the rest of the period. A geomagnetic sudden impulse (SI) was observed at 30/0018Z (12 nT, as measured by the Boulder USGS magnetometer). ACE solar wind data indicated the increased activity was associated with a period of southward IMF Bz (maximum deflection
-8 nT at 29/2306Z) combined with increased IMF Bt (peak 15 nT at 29/2359Z).

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: Geomagnetic activity is expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels during days 1 - 2 (31 March - 01 April) with a chance for brief active levels due to recurrent coronal hole high-speed stream effects. Activity is expected to decrease to quiet levels on day 3 (02 April) as coronal hole effects subside.

III. Event Probabilities 31 Mar-02 Apr
Class M 40/40/40
Class X 05/05/05
Proton 05/05/05

hello, could someone please go to this link
[link to www.solarham.com]

Im sorry I dont know correct technical terms, but what I need is for some one to go and click on the "blue" clip of the sun activity today and explain to me what the fair sized white glowing ball moving by the sun is...

it barely shows up on the "orange" clip but you can see it.


what is that? and I apologize for the lack of knowledge/correct tech terms.

see the little white dot on the lower left side?
3-30-11

it's a planet, tho I'm not sure which one..


sh fixed his mistake now..

He wrote in his forum..
"My Bad... it was March 21. .. I accidently quoted the SOHO story date."

and updated the front page..
Back-sided CME event (March 21, 2011) - The STEREO Ahead Spacecraft captured a huge backsided CME on March 21. Click this LINK to download an amazing movie. (Source) SOHO Website.

Thx Kevin..

yup
it is Mercury
you can use the "where is stereo" to see what planets are in view

ohh nice to see you got them to fix that :)

NiN,
Have a question... In a Carrington level event what would be the estimated time of the EMP type effects to hit earth?
XP

it looks like the Msphere did have a snapback after all, compasses going wild, etc. dutchsinse has a good vid of it..

It appears that NICT updates may have halted again. On another note, any thoughts on the reporters (and now Judge Judy) breaking into fits of babbling while on the air? NIN, you've got a thread on the animal die-offs. Perhaps this gibberish bug is connected -- perhaps through magnetic anomolies, HAARP tampering, solar effects? Definitely strange times we're living in.

NICT is working, just showing a "power" message and still in test mode..

Breaking M6.5 Fiji Region
Thread: Breaking M6.5 Fiji Region

On Saturday, August 13, 1831, residents along the entire Eastern Seaboard of the United States awoke that morning to a sun that seemed to be in the last stages of its extinction. As it dimmed remarkably, it grew so pale that 'it could be looked at directly.' Then changing hues, it went from green to blue to white. Finally, a black spot appeared on its surface 'like a black hand.' In Virginia and elsewhere, it was a seen as an omen of some earth-shaking deed. Alarm gripped residents from South Carolina to New York. To those on Manhattan Island, the sky seemed ablaze, and the whole of Newark appeared on fire."

The Southampton Slave Revolt
After seeing a halo around the sun on August 13, 1831, Turner believed this to be a sign from God to begin the revolt.

OE
i saw your comment on the fiji quake thread
i think your right
yesterday we seen the effects of the magnetotail northward IFM from the CME we had the day before
I am thinking this is what has onset todays quakes
this would also make compasses go off direction


The steady-state magnetospheric configuration un-der northward IMF conditions is of great interest,mainly because such configurations represent a “groundstate” of the otherwise highly dynamic magnetosphere,although long periods of due northward IMF withsteady magnetic field magnitude are extremely rare.Furthermore, the simpler (but not simple!) magne-tospheric topology and convection pattern help us tounderstand the fundamental interplay between magne-tospheric regions (including the ionosphere).

See how far north (positive) the Bz goes here on this video for yesterday

ejaculatory goodness.

and check out this very recent BACKSIDE CME

[link to sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov]

Rarrrgh! that's sexy!

Very good info.
I think the next few months are going to be very interesting indeed.

what a shot
lots of plasma in that one

also on another thread, you asked
"so, a WALNUT magnetosphere top-left image is GOOD?

and the way it is not, split and ripped (with a lot of negative Bz) is BAD?"

bad is not a word for it
you watch the Bz
north (green) bounces off, south (red) connects
now you need to see "what" is bouncing off or connecting
to find this out, you look at the speed and density in the chart directly above the Bz
so look right now, the Bz is south and connecting, but the speed is very low and density is about nothing
now even though the Bz is south and connecting, there is really nothing in the speed and density that is connecting
so not bad

now, when you see the Bz south, and then you see the speed and density rise.. THAT is when you will see things get interesting on the nict and that is when we get a geomagnetic storm
:)

Hi Nin,
Yeah I've been playin around the pinned threads, they always have the best jokes..

That Msphere activity yesterday could easily have triggered the Fiji eq, in fact I'm suprised we didn't see anything bigger, yet..

I'll go check out your new thread on the Msphere now..

cheers NiNzrez
