SOLAR WATCH * Huge X8.2 Flare Sept. 10, 2017! (Updated Daily)

It's been a while since we've had a good flare

Leif's pole strength chart has been updated to reflect the Monday's data.

[link to www.leif.org]

Dotted lines = Estimated actual pole strength

Now that the south has started to weaken it looks to be back on pace for the mid 2013 timing. The North of course has been much quicker off the draw.

Here is the vid from that link

another one, little bit longer, flare is toward the end.



crazy amount of activity along this limb

that is a tad bit spooky...

well thought out and informative post, 2266, thanks for your contribution.

I'm from the southwest and family since early 1600's the south. Picked it up when I lived in Texas and just can't seem to drop it. Saw on t.v. that people are actually offended when someone says hon or sweetie. Sheesh people are getting more and more sensitive. lol

I see the sun burped - now we need a great big belch!!

Yes, can someone explain what it would mean when the second graphic curve would reach zero?

big thanks, problem solved my dammit firefox browser blocked the helioviewer,grrrr(upload from helio--->YT)


Good night

Not here in the southeast...hell, they may be offended if'n ya didn't. I use hon, sweetheart, punkin, etc all the time.

I have always called my daughter punkin...last Christmas she said at 14 she was just didn't like to be called a pumpkin and more. Had to spell it out for her...goofy kid!

Nice to see no one minds on here when I add my normal hon.

Thanks hon!!!!

There's currently a little activity on the X-ray Flux meter but everything else is quiet.

That is a general indicator of when both poles are expected to have flipped. It's calculated by subtracting the South pole strength from the North pole strength and dividing that number by 2. Due to asymmetry it's not exact, but it's a general indicator of the progress of the overall pole flip.

Love the thread but why is it pinned ? no real activity for 5 days now... don't get why you would waste the karma

I was wondering the same...

Thanks for explaining. I would love to see graphs x-ed on a much longer timespan to compare data/patterns.

The answer to this may have already been given.. but if not, HAARP runs off of natural gas when in operation. One of the many reasons why HAARP is located where it is..

Wth [link to vso.tuc.noao.edu] !?

Wtf happened to Super Furry Filament [link to sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov] !?

Very close to the Sun pole shift.

Super Furry Filament has settled quite well into a giant Filament [link to halpha.nso.edu] if you look closely you should be able to see that the denser,cooler material of the Filament is almost completely obscuring the view of a small Sunspot,if you look toward the limb end of the Filament you see it briefly flash itself.

Hello there ElQ : )

If you compare the difference between the GONG Farside [link to gong2.nso.edu] and the HMI [link to vso.tuc.noao.edu] you see a very distinct difference,to say the least!

Neither of them appear correct when you then compare both with the Stonyhurst Heliographic [link to stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov] .

Wow,just imagine if the HMI one was correct!?

That would be beyond anything,ever..ever.

To correct my statement, HAARP originally called for natural gas generators to power the array. Officially, they decided to instead use 3600 HP diesel generators rather than natural gas. ARCO, one of the major funding contributors, owns huge reserves of natural gas in the immediate vicinity of HAARP.. so why or whether they actually changed the generation source to diesel is a bit of a mystery.

The North has been almost ready for a fair old while to switch with the South but the South has been quite sluggish in getting its' act together.

I'm wondering whether the difference between the North and Souths' speed of Polarity change may be causing a build up of Energies that will blow,giving us a signal that the Poles have finally completed hemispheric migration!?

Regardless,you would think that when the migration is complete the Sun should in some way or another signal that the event has completed,no?

Hello there : )

How come you Chaps/Gals are trying to find out the Power source for HAARP?

Sorry,if you don't mind moi asking.

whatta crazy pic!
