CH winds and now a glancing blow is expected from the CME early this morning
will arrive late on 18th - early 19th

Thread: Polar Plasma Wave...creating the sounds people are hearing around the world??...sounds of the magnetosphere..Listen for yourself...

There was an explosive CME (immediately prior to the big CME) from the equatorial latitude of the east limb near AR1404 & 1401. SEEDS movie based on SOHO Cor 2 images:

Sun doom is the best doom.

Chances of a Solar Flare Jan 16th 2012

Sunspot Region 1402:
52% Chance of a M Flare
41% Chance of a X Flare

Uh Oh!

We can see looking here at the Wing Kp Model..
[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]
that our magnetosphere was fairly well disturbed throughout the day.

POES, the Aurora Oval has been lit up throught the day as well.
[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]

Again we see the disturbance measured by ground based magnetometers...

[link to www.haarp.alaska.edu]
and the GOES magnetometer..
[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]

The ACE Satellite measured the disturbance, and we can see the data visually interpreted at NICT. A combination of a CHHSS that was coupled with some of the material ejected from the CME on the 12th combines in a visual seen here.

The CME was imaged by Stereo and SOHO.

Stereo B Cor2
[link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov]
and SOHO LC2
[link to sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov]

If those last two images look familiar they should. That CME was produced from the Active Region that produced todays CME; now having rotated a little nearer our direction.

Finally, for comparison, here is todays SOHO LC2 image of the CME that accompanied the LDE C6.5 flare from late night > early this morning.

I would expect that we will see a slight geomagnetic disturbance from this event sometime on the 19th into the 20th.

Hey Tom,...great to see you around posting again my friend.

Sun activity seems to be moving to a new phase within the cycle.

Don't know,...but,

Thanks, Tom! Very informative info as usual.

Sunspot Region 1402:
Chance of M Flare - 62%
Chance of X Flare - 57%

keep an eye on the Xray Flux
[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]

yup
there it is, watch that flux rise
it sure wants to give us an M or higher

C7.7 and still rising

now a M1.0

WE HAVE A M FLARE

Go baby go!!!

Chance of M-flare 100%....looks like 1401 again.

M1.1 from region 1401
[link to mysolaralerts.blogspot.com]

waiting to see if there was a produced CME with this event
looking at the SDO Magnetogram, 1402 looks like its ready to give us something as well

Good call, NIN. That little bump appears to be indeed from 1402.

WTF? Can't post any custom smilies:(

Colorful close-up movie of M-flare:

I`m always curious to see if the action slows down as it turns to face earth...it`s been the trend for a while now..Then as soon as the sunspots rotate out of our view they start blasting again. Sure wish somebody could put that piece of the puzzle together...Just seems like it is "more than luck" to me

If anybody can put it all together,...it will be you good folks here.

Any word on a CME with the latest M-flare..I can`t find anything stating that there was..

Check out the prominence on the eastern limb...

i have been super busy all day
i have some free time now
so i will look into it now :)

Everyone! GLP will be going dark for 24hrs starting tonight at midnight

any updates for solar activity can be found on the blog that TomasGod1, IWTB and myself run
you can find the link in my sig :)

i was just watching the news and a TON of websites are doing this!

Now a 50 percent chance for more M flares and 5 percent for an X....

Hi Tom...good to see you posting!

i bet!
1401 is looking pertty nasty
