Keep in mind we saw a CME from a C3 flare earlier today. Quoting: Hugh M Eye [link to halpha.nso.edu] Ramping up !!! [link to lasp.colorado.edu] Yes indeed, we've been waiting for that one to show up “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” – Carl Sagan |

madajs User ID: 6377684 Canada 09/02/2012 03:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Good morning all Quoting: TS66 According to Solen [link to www.solen.info] Region 11560 [N03W05] developed further with a magnetic delta structure forming in the trailing spot section. A major flare is possible. The region was the source of a long duration C2.8 event peaking before 04h UTC on September 2. This event was associated with a CME which could be aimed at Earth given the center disk location of the source. STEREO-A displays a CME, however, LASCO imagery may change the evaluation of the importance of the CME. The geomagnetic field is expected to be quiet to unsettled on September 2. A CME could reach Earth on September 3 and cause active to major storm conditions that day and on September 4. The CME observed early on September 2 could reach Earth on September 5 and cause unsettled to minor storm conditions. 20-60% chance of M and/or X flares This 2nd CME looks to hit us square on the nose [link to iswa.gsfc.nasa.gov:8080] Nice little one-two punch, with the filament ejection hitting us tomorrow then this second cme hitting us wednesday. First one holds the arms while the second one punches the gut? : ) And always, he fought the temptation to choose a clear, safe course, warning: "That path leads ever down into stagnation." |

ACE data as of 00:24 UTC Sept 2nd 2012 Solar Wind Speed: 311.5 Density: 0.8 Bz: -2.7 The Bz represents the positive/negative (Pos = North, Neg = South) direction of the solar winds. The farther south the solar winds are when they hit our magnetosphere, the more they connect with Earths magnetic field = The larger the geomagnetic storm it creates. If the Bz is far south in the neg -, you do not need super fast solar winds or high density to stir up a geomagnetic storm. Because when it is far south in the neg-, a larger amount of what is hitting Earths magnetic field is connecting and getting in. The strong geomagnetic storms we see are caused by a far south(neg -) Bz combined along with faster Solar Winds and high amounts of Density. Because of this, the 3 main charts of data we watch are the "Solar wind speed", "Density" and the "Bz" Watching this short animation will help to put a visual to the explination above :) [link to www.youtube.com] |

madajs User ID: 6377684 Canada 09/02/2012 03:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For 3 hours today the DST index read -28 -32 -34; a minor geomagnetic storm consists of the range -30 to -50, so a storm, albeit very weak, occurring just a couple hours ago.

I'm a lurker because I am learning the sun science and don't have anything smart to contribute yet. Quoting: parrotsandwhiskey You've all inspired me so much that I went back to school (after being a stay at home mom for 25 years) this past week, and the first class I signed up for was Astronomy!

Isis One User ID: 14343270 United States 09/02/2012 05:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | looks like spaceweather added to their report on thei Filament CME Quoting: NiNzrez 12844841 "NOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of strong polar geomagnetic storms when the cloud arrives on Sept. 3rd." the front of the CME arrived yesterday and barley glanced or did anything at all but, it would appear that NOAA is also watching what i am, and thats the super black dense mass from this CME that is still enrout in space Here you can see the mass im speaking of off to the fer left in this image as it is seen at 01:47 UTC [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] and here we can see it much better in the latest HI2 image at 07:48 [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] believe me, it that does hit, we will all know it here is the images of the CME cloud on HI1 for Sept 26, 2011 that cloud caused a Kp8 Geomagnetic Storm [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] i added these to show how its more about impact and when we see very dense mass such as what we see today, we are super lucky when it does not give a direct hit Because if the cloud on the 2 images directly above can cause a Kp8 (with a good hit) can you just imagine what the CME cloud we see today would do if it hit us just right? Thanks much for that and this is what makes you and this thread so awesome, the comparative analysis, that is where one really learns, you are an excellent thinker and teacher NIN!!
