Re: SOLAR WATCH * Huge X8.2 Flare Sept. 10, 2017! (Updated Daily)
i luv this thread.

[link to www.bigupload.com]

and i feel that this last event has been really educational for me. actually observing the process is much different than examining data of past events: far more enlightening, imo.

obviously, much more observation, thought, and discussion remains before understanding arrives....

a coupla things i noticed :

CMEs tend to arrive in a 3 'half wave' impact, almost as if we pass through two transitions (leading and trailing edge) and a middle peak.

there appears to be a strong correlation (tho not always: annoyingly) between Bz flips and strong geofield 'ringing'.

absolute magnitude of flare that produces a CME is less important than duration: or more precisely, both magnitude and duration need to be considered when estimating the degree of interaction.

there appears to be at least some correlation between planetary locations and earth directed CMEs: need more data here to be sure.

the D-RAP chart might be a good metric for a 'charged' earth.


a coupla burning questions:

while the IMF polarity (Bz red or green) seems to affect Gaia's field strongly during some periods, other times, almost not all. Where is the missing variable(s?) that determines the degree of interaction?

is it all pure physics or is there some 'information processing' going on? does/can She choose? it seems quite reasonable to me that the biosphere can process information: choose different actions based on similar stimulus.

or something.

i hope to have some post processing to share with y'all in a coupla days.

there is a new sunspot on the Northeast limb that is starting to rotate in Earths direction today
there is a CME that was produced from this region a few minutes ago
not earth directed
but maybe a sign of things to come this week
the full solar activity update will be posted soon

SIDC Forecast Bulletin for today:


SIDC SOLAR BULLETIN 26 Jan 2012, 1232UT
SIDC FORECAST (valid from 1230UT, 26 Jan 2012 until 28 Jan 2012)
SOLAR FLARES : Active (M-class flares expected, probability >= 50%)
GEOMAGNETISM : Active conditions expected (A>=20 or K=4)
SOLAR PROTONS : Proton event in progress (>10 MeV)
PREDICTIONS FOR 26 Jan 2012 10CM FLUX: 125 / AP: 006
PREDICTIONS FOR 27 Jan 2012 10CM FLUX: 121 / AP: 020
PREDICTIONS FOR 28 Jan 2012 10CM FLUX: 121 / AP: 011
COMMENT: Solar activity is expected to be active with risks of M class
flares from NOAA AR 1402. It produced a series of C class flares on Jan.
26, including a long duration event (C6.4, 0542UT peak time),
accompanied with a partial halo CME observed on both COR2 coronagraphs
on STEREO and with LASCO onboard SOHO. This event is not expected to
trigger any significant geomagnetic disturbance. Geomagnetic activity is
expected to be active by the end of Jan. 27 due to a coronal hole
becoming geoeffective. Current solar wind conditions are quiet.

Another C1.8 apparently from 1402--lots of activity on the H-alpha movie from Mauna Loa Observatoy. We'll have to keep an eye on the filament in the south-central disk. It's near the edge of the coronal hole and directly Earth-facing.

2 excellent articles in the news:

Classifying Solar Eruptions
Jan 27, 2012
Solar flares are giant explosions on the sun that send energy, light and high speed particles into space. These flares are often associated with solar magnetic storms known as coronal mass ejections (CMEs). While these are the most common solar events, the sun can also emit streams of very fast protons - known as solar energetic particle (SEP) events - and disturbances in the solar wind known as corotating interaction regions (CIRs).
The full article is here:

Flights rerouted as massive solar storm slams Earth
Jan 24, 2012
Solar radiation from a massive sun storm -- the largest in nearly a decade -- collided with the Earth's atmosphere on Tuesday, prompting an airline to reroute flights and skywatchers to seek out spectacular light displays.
US carrier Delta Air Lines said it had adjusted flight routes for transpolar journeys between Asia and the United States to avoid problems caused by the radiation storm, a spokesman said.
