Impulsive C2.7 flare may have been from 1652.

more than likley there wont be

as a rule of thumb:
when the Xrays spike straight up, then right away goes straight back down = No CME

when the xray flux goes up, slow or spiked (dont really matter) and then lingers there a bit and SLOWLY comes back down = sig for a CME

thats the best way to get an idea if there is or is not a CME before images come out showing it

Nice catch, GeoStorm! I loved yer movie, too! On the SDO movie you can see an eruption over the west limb and several regions flare at the same time. The M1.7 definitely came from 1652 though.

That's cool, thank you. I have learned so much from this thread!

I have a question for you in light of what's been going on lately. If a spot flares, like a few C's or M's in a row, does that tend to "weaken" it, meaning it is less likely to let off a big one? Or does it not matter and is just random?

Description: Type II emissions occur in association with eruptions on the sun and typically indicate a coronal mass ejection is associated with a flare event.

So we do have a CME :)

@hugh and TS:

judging by the xray image from eve: [link to lasp.colorado.edu]

would you wager on 1652, or 1654 being the main candidate for the alert?

Just curious as to your opinion, if the information is not available yet.

LASP certainly is lit up in those 2 areas, and would account for the consistent C background.

Both areas seem to have a lot of potential, whether their potential comes to fruition or not is the real question.

Both have complexity, and with some development both could return to BGDs

Although I can't speak for Hugh, these are the areas I'm watching, including what may become a delta spot on 1654 with a little more development(southern center area of spot)

1654

I don't know a lot about this stuff but it does interest me. I have been following for a while and have couple questions..

1- so are you guys looking for an x-class here? let's say we were to have one..what would the implications be?

2- it seems that x-class flares are not too uncommon so what is the hype?

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28236632


Not all X-class flares are equal. For example, an X1 will be more common than an X20 and so on. Also, not all flares produce CME's (coronal mass ejections). These ejections are what can really mess with out geomagnetic field and cause big geomagnetic storms.

This is the short answer. Theoretically...two M class flares that produce big CME's could do more damage than two X-class flares that do not produce CME's. All about the CME in a lot of cases. Although, you can still get other impacts from non-CME flares (radio blackouts and such).

there is a lot of study done on this subject
often, we do see a large M flare or X flare occure that causes a complex section of the sunspot to become more stable after the flare and then we see the sunspot calm down
[link to adsabs.harvard.edu]
this is the main reason, that after a high M or X flare, you will see some of us talking about the area and complecity of the sunspot.
we do not see this happen much with C flares, they are more of a ramping up of the sunspot, so to speak

Thanks for your interest and inquiries...

The second question first....I'm not hyping anything. I have no idea why Drudge Report has a story on an M-flare w/no CME. Maybe he's been listening to the Suspicious Obfuscator's vids, hehe. We haven't had any noteworthy solar events of the "front page news" variety for some time. This is a passionate hobby of mine; it's good, clean fun, and educational, too.

Now the first question-we watch every kind of flare and other solar happenings. Active Region 1654 is one of the largest sunspot groups of the Solar Cycle 24. We haven't seen any X-flares for some months, so we're very excited at the possibility. Entire books have been written on the effects of X-Ray solar events and Coronal Mass Ejections, so I can't say too much at this time. In general, X-flares can cause radio blackouts, disrupt GPS, increase radiation exposure by flight crews and astronauts.

Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are a different animal altogether;a large number of effects on Earth range from: auroral displays to power grid failure; satellite outages; heart attacks and strokes; spacecraft damage; insanity and the end of comet Elenin. Keep in mind that extreme solar events can't be predicted, this is why we stay vigilant here.
