well lets turn to the amateurs for the images now!
check out this image of the large prominence. great catch!!!!

[link to spaceweather.com]

this is more proof that NASA and governments could not hide anything major going on out there with the sun or space.

just too many scopes working and recording!!!!

Re: SOLAR WATCH * Huge X8.2 Flare Sept. 10, 2017! (Updated Daily)
Are there a number of hours between a solar flare or other event and the time they are felt here?
 Quoting: Coward 18833911


"YES" and "NO" is a terrible answer, I know, but you're asking more than one question, Friend. A solar flare would be "felt" in about 8 minutes (X-rays and photons arriving at light-speed). By the time the orbiting detectors and/or cameras see something it's already here. Large flares can cause radio blackouts at certain hi-frequencies and a nasty sunburn if you're lying on a beach in New Zealand, LOL. Flight crews and air traffic communications, especially in polar regions, may be affected. Fortunately, most of us are protected by the ozone layer.

In the case of "other events", possibly connected to a solar flare or possibly unrelated, we can expect the effects of ejected mass or plasma (CMEs) to arrive in 2-4 days depending on the velocity of the ejection. Coronal Holes are magnetically open fields that accelerate the solar winds away from the Sun at a higher than normal velocity, also affecting Earth in about 4 days. These events may potentially compromise satellite communications and even to the point of permanently disabling them. Power grids, pipelines and other large infrastructure may also suffer malfunctions in an extreme space weather event.
We try here to keep up with all of these events so we're not "blind-sided" by an unforeseen event. The consequences and effects of these events are very difficult to predict with accuracy and the experts are often off-the-mark. Many variables seem to play a role (including some which remain unidentified or undiscovered).

For more background on Solar activity, I highly recommend the solar physics pages at the Marshall Space Flight Center:

And, hey, thanks for posting...we're always recruiting new "Suntards", hehe.

Thanks for the reply, Hugh!

I nerested because these colleges drilled into me about sun's hazard.

Here is something I gathered from the links on these pages.

the STAR ON THE ELECTRON FLUX LINE which means:

Space Weather Message Code: ALTEF3
Serial Number: 1924
Issue Time: 2012 Jul 01 1335 UTC

ALERT: Electron 2MeV Integral Flux exceeded Space Weather Message Code: ALTEF3
Serial Number: 1924
Issue Time: 2012 Jul 01 1335 UTC

ALERT: Electron 2MeV Integral Flux exceeded 1000pfu
Threshold Reached: 2012 Jul 01 1320 UTC
Station: GOES13
Potential Impacts: Satellite systems may experience significant charging resulting in increased risk to satellite systems.

Means the outer cases of sattelites may carry a charge received by passing through the ambient electrons?

Finally a Disaster Area that Obama and FEMA can walk to!

Update on power outages and damages in the DC area...

Cell phone systems crashed, no 911 service, NASA webservers down, vehicles squashed by fallen trees, houses squashed by fallen trees, 13 dead, etc. Here's a snip from the Wash. Post today-

As the temperature crept past 90 degrees Sunday afternoon, the number left to swelter without out power in the Washington region crept down by degrees, but many braced for life without air conditioning, lights and refrigeration for days to come.

The number without power was dropping by the hour — 739,187 at noon, down by almost 40,000 since 8:30 a.m. — and power was fully restored to water pumping stations in Maryland, ending mandatory water restrictions in Montgomery and Prince George’s counties.

But Pepco officials estimated it could be Friday before power is restored to nearly all of its customers in Maryland and D.C. who are without electricity. Half the customers in Montgomery County remain without power, and County Executive Isaiah Leggett (D) called Pepco’s time frame “unacceptable.”

It seems to always work that way for me too IWTB, lol. I have managed to catch the last two X-flares as they happened at that was just pure chance. I think it was Hugh that was on also and we were all tickled that we got to see it happen.

What I hope to see as it happens - not because I WANT it to happen, rather to KNOW what is coming - is the BIG one. THAT is why I am a suntard, so I have a few moments head start to prepare and gather those I need around me.

Next time we'll have an LDE so you can walk the dog and be back before it peaks,LOL.

Now that I found a good link for SDO/AIA images, they stopped updating. This is getting very frustrating. I'm a little antsy without STEREO & SOHO to check for CMEs. We're entering the "danger zone" with 4 large active regions facing Earth. It's scary to think we could have a Carrington-type flare and not be able to track it online.
