Just Got Text !!!!X Flare Update pg5 | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 61863222  United Kingdom05/05/2015 07:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Solar Flares and Coronal Mass Ejections are two very different things that can sometimes be associated with eachother... When there is a flare - its detected by the GOES Satellite - which detects the amount of xrays the Earth is getting... So when you ask is this Earth facing - yes - the X2.7 Solar Flare impacted Earth. Now - the corresponding Coronal Mass Ejection that happened at the same time as the solar flare from the same region is NOT Earth directed - at least that is how it appears at the moment. Yes I know all of that but the source region isn't positioned yet for a cme to worry us which is what I was really answering. An X2.7 itself isn't anything to be bothered about which I'm sure you know. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 61863222 United Kingdom05/05/2015 07:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Flares are omni-directional, so yes! We took a hit but it wasn't a large charge, maybe next time we won't be as lucky? A weak hit! [link to services.swpc.noaa.gov] Wrong... Click here: [link to www.swpc.noaa.gov] Scroll down... Find the D-RAP... Press play and watch from 21:00... Huge hit. R3 - strong radio blackout Strong radio blackout for some short wave users. Everyone else is fine. |

I guess this is what happens - we get so excited over these small X-Class flares because of the insanely weak solar cycle we are in. And of course its on the limb like 90% for the X-Class flares we've gotten over the past 3-years!  1sSol1d1ntel |

Radio - Wide area blackout of HF (high frequency) radio communication for about an hour. High Frequency Blackouts.... Would be an interesting time for a Nuclear False Flag Event... |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 69104911  Spain05/05/2015 07:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can someone explain this, because I continue to see reports like this, but then here we are getting x-flares [link to vencoreweather.com] The sun is almost completely blank. The main driver of all weather and climate, the entity which occupies 99.86% of all of the mass in our solar system, the great ball of fire in the sky has gone quiet again during what is likely to be the weakest sunspot cycle in more than a century. The sun's X-ray output has flatlined in recent days and NOAA forecasters estimate a scant 1% chance of strong flares in the next 24 hours. Not since cycle 14 peaked in February 1906 has there been a solar cycle with fewer sunspots. We are currently more than six years into Solar Cycle 24 and the current nearly blank sun may signal the end of the solar maximum phase. Solar cycle 24 began after an unusually deep solar minimum that lasted from 2007 to 2009 which included more spotless days on the sun compared to any minimum in almost a century. |

Actually the X flare probability for today was 5% and was upped to 10% in the last update as this new region rotated into view. Region 2339 was identified as the likely source for stronger flaring. |
