GLP Effect, LOL. It stopped as soon as I posted. M1.2....could be a fore-shock tho.

seems to be from the new region...

hey Shenue :)
sorry, i must have missed this
we had a X1.9 on the 3rd
no X21 this cycle yet
X1.9 Flare on 11/03/2011 @ 20:27 UTC - sunspot 1339
the flare size has absolutely nothing at all to do with the size of a CME associated with the flare
that is if a CME is even produced at all
some of the biggest CME's we see are not even associated with large flares

the 1st big CME of SC24 happened on Aug 1, 2010 and was produced in association with a C3 Flare (quite small flare)
"On August 1st, almost the entire Earth-facing side of the sun erupted in a tumult of activityThere was a C3-class solar flare, a solar tsunami, multiple filaments of magnetism lifting off the stellar surface, large-scale shaking of the solar corona, radio bursts, a coronal mass ejection and more"
[link to en.wikipedia.org]

just one story on the Flare and CME
[link to news.discovery.com]

this is why we constantly not only watch for flares, bt also keep close watch on the images that will allow us to see if there was a CME

here is a nice video that shows how a CME hits earth and how it connects

i guess he means this NINz...

That's what I thought at first, IWTB, but it updated-definitely 1339 again. How many M's is that? Seems like 10 this week.

you do such a great job on all the updates and videos
thank you so much for taking the time :)
always great work

yep :(

damn...:D i will go sleeping grrr


cya all, stage is yours :D

AHHHH ok ^^
thats from a day in history :)
the biggest flare recorded to date
this flare did not just happen ^^

i update them to the OP of the thread as we get them

here is the count for Nov

November:
M1.2 Flare on 11/06/2011 @ 01:03 UTC - sunspot 1339
M1.8 Flare on 11/05/2011 @ 20:38 UTC - sunspot 1339
M1.1 Flare on 11/05/2011 @ 11:21 UTC - sunspot 1339
M3.7 Flare on 11/05/2011 @ 03:35 UTC - sunspot 1339
M1.0 Flare on 11/04/2011 @ 20:40 UTC - sunspot 1339
M2.1 Flare on 11/03/2011 @ 22:36 UTC - sunspot 1339
X1.9 Flare on 11/03/2011 @ 20:27 UTC - sunspot 1339
M2.5 Flare on 11/03/2011 @ 11:11 UTC - sunspot 1339
M4.3 Flare on 11/02/2011 @ 22:01 UTC - sunspot 1339

we can see there is a rise back up on the xray flux, directly after it started to drop from the last M flare
this could be from 2 seperate regions flaring at the same time
i will take a look through the SDO EVE images to see what i can find on this.
that area over the eastern limb could throw one our way any sek now
once it rotates over the limb, we should expect the Xray flux background level to rise

have a great sleep :)

Hugh, did i see you say somewhere that you in Jersey?
i can not remember, did you see those red auroras where your at?

Whatever became of the M-flare they said was 4 M-flares....then 3 M's...I guess it turned into 1 M-flare again?? I think it was the M4.3.

I suppose you mean on Oct.24/25...No, unfortunately-bad timing and a lot of clouds/chemtrails. Folks were sayin' it only flared up for 10 minutes or so. When I went out to look I saw a bright meteor overhead, but my view to the North was foggy. Also, I'm just southeast of Philadelphia so when I look North I always see a pink-orange glow from the city

I've only seen the Aurora Borealis one time. It was purely unexpected and very magical-shimmering green curtains. I think it was July 1993 and I remember there was a partial solar eclipse earlier that day. I was camping in upstate Pennsylvania near the New York border-one of the only truly dark sky areas in the northern East Coast megalopolis. Thanks for asking, guess you have a few more opportunities up in Michigan.

i could be wrong, but are you talking about the ones on Oct 31st?

2 recorded most places, but it was 3

M1.2 Flare on 10/31/2011 @ 18:33 UTC - sunspot 1339
M1.4 Flare on 10/31/2011 @ 18:08 UTC - sunspot 1339
M1.1 Flare on 10/31/2011 @ 15:08 UTC - sunspot 1339

here is the recorded shot of the flux for that day

love that site because you can look throgh any date on the left and see what was going on with flares that day :)

sadly, i live right down town in the city so for me to see the lights, it either has to be a very dark night with little or no moon light, or i have to leave this area for a night drive
maybe we will get lucky with 1339 and get a good bright arora show that we can all see :)
i wanted so bad to see the Red auroras, but mussed out this time

Thank you, IWTB. I just wasn't sure that if a CME was strong enough, whether it could directly affect biology...human, animal, plant...etc.
Yes, I have read about the Carrington Event. I know that something like that now would most likely be so devestating to our society.

Thank you Nin. I know that X21 thing was strange. Someone had said that in another thread and I took them at their word eventhough it didn't sound 'right' to me. Thank you and IWTB for taking the time to answer me.
That was a great video you posted! Thanks!

Hey NIN... Thanks for all the updates...

Hi, Shenue, you may find this article informative "Magnetic Storms Affect Humans". At solar maximum the sun puts out only about 0.1% more energy, but I guess if you're lying on a beach when a X28 flare comes you might feel an increase in sunburn, LOL. It's the resulting geomagnetic storms which we have to worry about.

EMSC has it as a 5.7

LOL, people are already talking underground nuke,

I might hang out here with the sane peeps

already? haha wow thats fast

hear that everyone? we are the "sane" people


you need to come have a talk with some of my family members

your very welcome :)

Okay Thats Crazy!! True but.... Wow What's up. This is a diverse place no doubt.

A CME can and does effect all things living on earth as well as non living, such as magma below us
nothing that would suggest a ELE though
so i think were safe in that department :)

Ninz Thanks for keeping us up to date. I wouldn't of heard this (the Okie quake) till later.

Hi, Ninz. You guys have been really busy, but I just wanted to pop in and tell you I'm glad you feeling better and that your back. Everyone did a wonderful job while you were out, but we all missed you! But, just for the record...does all hell REALLY have to break loose!?!

i want to add, that a earthquake produces a P wave, that travels from the point of origin, outward
a Nuke detonation does not have this effect

here we can already see the P waves from the Oklahoma quake
[link to aslwww.cr.usgs.gov]

Note: this Does Not show a world wide quake as so many try saying when they see the seismic waves on all the drums. It just from the waves traveling through earths crust and being picked up on other seismic monitors
