Another not so little dance from Sol

Sol's 1748 blasted of another X Class flare yesterday- with a corresponding filament breaking away on the almost opposite side of the sun.... For action there is an equal and opposite reaction ;)
The CME from this X1.2 Flare might give earth a slight glancing blow, but any flares from today forward will definitely be in line of sight of Gaia.

NOAA has again upgraded the flare watch to 80% for an MClass and 50% for an XClass flare in the next 24-48 hours.

http://www.solarham.net/


1748 Flares Again (X1.2)
Sunspot 1748 does it again. For the fourth time, the active region has produced a major X-Class solar flare. The latest event measured X1.2 and peaked at 01:47 UTC. The eruption was associated with Type II and IV Sweep Frequency Events and a 10cm Radio Burst (Ten Flare) measuring 490 sfu. I will provide further updates regarding a possible Coronal Mass Ejection. Stay Tuned to SolarHam.com for the latest updates.

CME Update: The latest X-Flare event did generate a Coronal Mass Ejection. Because the blast location is still not in prime position, a majority of the plasma was directed away from Earth. There does appear to be a very minor Earth directed component, however it should have only a minor effect on our geomagnetic field at best. Images below by LASCO C2.

Description: A 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the 10cm wavelength was double or greater than the initial 10cm radio background. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.

SOL: 72 hours in 31 seconds- amazing footage

Yea yea yea, I know.... all I wanna talk about is the sun.  Sorry guys- but this is extremely awesomely interesting!!

This is a brilliant video- condensing the past 72 hours into 31 seconds.  Watch our sun and be amazed and she tangos across the cosmos!!!

Solar XXX Rated Dancing

Well Our lovely Sol is definitely in the highest of party modes right now.  3 XClass flares in just over 48 hours- two of those, including the X 3.2 Flare just hours ago, blasted out in less than 24 hours.  If you watch the SuspiciousObservers video below, he also explains that in the past 24 hours there were two solar filaments that ripped away, and also another Gamma Burst incoming from across the galaxy.  As sun spot 1748 rotates into earth facing position, any new Flares could trigger direct earth facing CMEs.

.... NOAA has finally upgraded their risk assessment, lol- with an 80% chance of MClass and 40% chance of XClass flares in the next 48 hours.

So my friends, if you're WIFI is wonky, if your cell phone calls are getting dropped, or you can't get your wireless printer to work...... Don't throw them out a window quite yet- they'll behave again once all the solar partying is over.

And if you're out driving, please be a bit more aware of what's going on around you.  It's a known fact that solar activity like this CAN effect us Humans- mentally and emotionally.  Hence the up tick in road rage incidents during CMEs and geomagnetic storms.

I'm keeping an eye on the Sun while packing today- I'll let you know if she puts her dancing shoes on again.

Third Major X-Flare (X3.2)
New Sunspot 1748 is proving to be a big time flare producer. A major solar flare reaching X3.2 just peaked at 01:10 UTC. This is the third such explosion within the past 24 hours. The first measured X1.7 and the second X2.8. Two of the three solar flares is good enough to make it into the Top 10 List of strongest flares during Cycle 24.

The source of all three X-class events is emerging active region designated as AR 1748. X1.7-class eruption was registered on May 13, 2013 at 02:17 UTC, followed by an X2.8-class flare at 16:09 UTC and an X3.2-class flare (0117 UT on May 14). This extraordinary active region is making its way fully onto the visible disk and we can expect more increased solar activity in the days ahead.

Solar rotation is bringing the active region 1748 into view, NOAA/SWPC forecasters estimate a 40% chance of more X-flares during the next 24 hours and high 80% chance of M-class events.

Sun goes X Rated!

Another XClass flare just popped off a few hours ago with a pretty damn big CME- though mostly not Earth facing.

.... Not that I'm saying I know more than the scientists at NOAA..... but guys! Don'tcha think you should perhaps upgrade your Solar Flare Risks?  They've been 50% for an MClass and 5% chance of an XClass flare for the past 48 hours..... and we've already had 5 M Flares and 2 X Flares!!!

.....Just sayin'

http://thewatchers.adorraeli.com/2013/05/13/second-major-solar-flare-today-solar-flare-measuring-x2-86-peaked-at-16-05-utc/

The Sun is showing real solar-maximum-like activity today. After 2 moderate solar flares last night, an X1.7 erupted at 02:15 UTC. It was followed by another M-class at 12:03 UTC and numerous C-class flares.
At 15:48 UTC, on May 13, 2013, a second major eruption started. Peak time was reached at 16:05 UTC and was measured as X2.86 solar flare. The source was again, an active region located around the eastern limb. This region will most likely continue to produce eruptions as it turns into Earth view today.
A 10cm Radio burst was associated with the event. A type II and type IV radio emissions were also associated.  Type IV emissions occur in association with major eruptions on the sun and are typically associated with strong Coronal Mass Ejections and solar radiation storms.
This was second major solar flare of the day. The first one was strongest this year, this second one was even stronger and now holds the record of strongest solar flare this year so far.

Another X-Class Solar Flare (X2.8)
Another major X-Class solar flare, this time peaking at X2.8 was observed at 16:05 UTC. Another Strong Radio Blackout resulted on the sunlit side of Earth. The source is again the active region rotating into view off the east limb. The latest event generated a Coronal Mass Ejection that looks to be directed mostly towards the east and away from Earth. The solar rotation will continue to carry the Sunspot into a more direct Earth view this week. Images and video below.Stay Tuned for updates.

Sol Goes on a 72 hour Bender

Well guys, I wasn't going to be posting this morning, but upon seeing that we had an XClass Solar Flare last night, preceded by 4 MClass flares in the last 72 hours..... I dropped everything to write this up.

Beyond the 4 MClass and 1 XClass flares in the past 72 hours, we've also had two filaments rip off, both releasing CMEs (Coronal Mass Ejections).  The last CME should give Earth a glancing blow on the 15th of this month.

The XClass flare last night- X 1.7 was a huge visual display (that someone captured on their personal telescope- image below), created a very big R3 radio black out on the sunlit side of earth when it happened.  The CME from this flare will NOT be Earth facing, not even a glancing blow.

We currently have 8 active regions that are Earth facing and two more regions that are now rotating into view- one of those regions is where the XClass flare came from last night.

UPDATE!!!!  We just had another MClass flare a few moments ago!! An M 1.3 flare- I do not have details yet and will post them when I get them.

X-Class Solar Flare
A major X-Class Solar Flare peaking at X1.7 was observed around an active region hiding off the east limb at 02:15 UTC [VIDEO]. This event was also responsible for a strong R3 Level Radio Blackout on the sunlit side of Earth. This region is currently seething with activity and will begin to rotate into view within the next 24 hours. Because of the sunspot location, any associated Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) should be directed away from Earth.

Solar Update
Below is an updated image of the visible solar disk on Monday morning. Solar activity is now at strong levels thanks to one X-Class Flare and multiple M-Class events around a new sunspot rotating into view off the east limb. The X1.7 Solar Flare at 02:15 UTC was responsible for a strong R3 Level Radio Blackout, a 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare) measuring 320sfu and Type II Radio Emission (Sweep Frequency Event) with an estimated velocity of 2347 km/s. A bright Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was produced, but directed away from Earth. We will get a better view at the active region as the day progresses. GOES Solar X-Rays continue to detect several C-Class flares, each of which are centered around the new region. There will remain a chance for at least M-Class flares today. Other regions to keep an eye today will be Sunspots 1745 and 1746. Each have a Beta-Gamma magnetic configuration and could produce a moderate solar flare as well. With the rash of Earth facing Sunspots, the 10.7cm Solar Flux is expected to increase.




From the Watchers site: http://thewatchers.adorraeli.com/2013/05/12/two-m-class-flares-and-filament-eruption/

A new active region behind east limb produced powerful X1.7 solar flare on May 13, 2013 at 02:15 UTC. This event was associated with  strong R3 Radio Blackout Alert, Type II Radio Emission and 10 cm Radio Burst. 
This was the strongest solar flare of the year so far.
Strong R3 radio Blackout alert signals possible wide area blackout of HF radio communication, loss of radio contact for about an hour on sunlit side of Earth and degradation of low-frequency navigation signals for about an hour.
Type II Radio Emission occur in association with eruptions on the sun and typically indicate a coronal mass ejection is associated with a flare event.

This new region is currently very active and it should begin to rotate into view within the next 24 hours. Considering its location any associated Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) should be directed away from Earth.
This new active region already produced two moderate M-class solar flare, registered as M1.9 at 20:31 UTC and M1.2 at22.:44 UTC. 
There are currently 10 numbered regions on the disk. Regions 1745 and 1746 have Beta-Gamma magnetic configuration and are capable of producing more strong flares, and six more active regions developed Beta magnetic field and are coming into center of the disk in the coming days.

Two Solar Flares, mega Gamma Bursts, and Coronal Hole stream..... could be an interesting weekend, lol!

NOTE: NOAA update is 55% chance of MClass and 10% chance of X Class flares as of this morning.  As SuspiciousObservers states (video below) the Flares are just part of the space weather that is currently active.  We have a rather large coronal hole directly earth facing and spitting out all sorts of stuff our way- should reach us in two days time- and several HUGE gamma bursts coming in- including the largest one ever measured!

.... next few days could be very interesting :>D

I will provide more updates should there be a plasma cloud associated, and if so, if there is an earthbound component. This is the second M-Class flare within the hour with the first being centered around Sunspot 1731.

Added 05/01/2013 @ 03:40 UTC Monster Eruption One of the largest prominence eruptions in quite some time was observed off the eastern limb. This image by SDO using the 304 angstroms channel captures the massive blob of plasma in action. A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is to be expected, however because of the location, it should be directed mostly away from Earth. Stay Tuned for updates.

UPDATE: The large eruption from just beyond the east limb may have been in conjunction with a solar flare around old Sunspot 1719. This image by STEREO Behind captures the flash of the flare event. The solar rotation will carry old region 1719 into view later this week. A bright Coronal Mass Ejection is now visible in the latest STEREO imagery. Because this event took place beyond the east limb, the plasma cloud should have little impact on Earth.




A spectacular prominence eruption was observed on the Sun on May 1, 2013 at 02:30 UTC. The event was classified as a farside eruption from active region located beyond eastern limb. This was the largest such event in quite some time now.
Powerful blast was unleashed into space and resulting Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is not Earth directed. This region should rotate onto Earth facing side of the Sun in 2-3 days.

Flare probability

At 01:26 UTC, an impulsive C9.6 solar flare was detected. The event was centered around Sunspot 1730 located in the southern hemisphere.
NOAA SWPC forecasters estimated 40% chance for M-class, and 5% chance for X-class event today.

Sunspots

There are currently 7 numbered sunspot regions on the disk. Beta-Gamma-Delta classified Region 1731 is the one to watch today as it is directly facing Earth. Region 1730, also Beta-Gamma-Delta, is slowly rotating out of Earth’s view. Other than that, Regions 1732 and 1734 have Beta magnetic field and will turn directly toward Earth in the coming days.
Old Region 1719 is coming back to Earth side of the Sun and should be visible in next 2-3 days.

M6.5 Solar Flare + CME / Proton Levels
The strongest solar flare in quite some time took place within the past couple of hours around Sunspot 1719. The moderately strong event measuring M6.5 took place at 07:16 UTC. A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is now visible in the latest STEREO Ahead and STEREO Behind COR2 imagery. Because 1719 is now squarely facing Earth, the plasma should be directed this way. This will raise the chances of geomagnetic storming by this weekend.

Two M-Class Solar Flares

I do not know if the flare's released CMEs yet or if they are earth facing- I will update when I know.  The 1654 spot is rotating directly into Earth view and  I suspect has a bit more partying left in it's dancing shoes. 50% chance of further M Class flares and 5% chance of X Class flares.  I'm betting we'll see an X-Class in the next 3 days.... we'll have to wait and see.

Solar (R)evolution

I'm looking forward to watching this movie.  The Sun and everything  related intrigues me- I'm drawn to it like iron filings to a magnet.  


Does the sun have the power to transform humankind?

In SOLAR (R)EVOLUTION, world-renowned German biophysicist Dieter Broers makes a compelling case, pointing to a wealth of scientific evidence that shows a remarkable correlation between increases in solar activity and advances in our creative, mental, and spiritual abilities.

We are in the midst of a dramatic rise in solar disturbances, which have the capability of disrupting the Earth’s geomagnetic field and, as a result, our global ecology. Broers, however, sees this not as an impending apocalypse but as the dawn of a new era.

Drawing on research from a variety of disciplines, he shows how erupting solar activity carries the potential to boost our brain capacity and expand our minds in ways we never imagined possible. Abilities now seen as extraordinary or supernatura - telepathy, extrasensory perception, and off-the-charts intelligence quotients - may soon become ordinary and natural and could very well help us solve the mounting global crises we are facing.

Without a doubt, the way we think, feel, relate, communicate, and experience reality has been changing dramatically in recent years, and Dieter Broers affirms those changes will ultimately culminate in a new form of consciousness and harmony on Earth. Humankind is going through an evolutionary leap, says Broers, and the process has already begun.

A personal Note from Dieter Broers:

We are at a pinnacle time at which all of our senses are telling us that we are approaching a turning point. Humankind is (we are) in the middle of an all-encompassing process of change. In the external world we are experiencing an increase in the density of events, not only quantitatively, but also qualitatively in their intensity. We realize that a significant number of these events correlate with our own inner mental and emotional processes.

Dieter Broers’ film is all the suggestion we need to realize that we have come to the end of our infatuation with the straight line, and are awakening to a virgin appreciation of all it means to be human. I gladly recommend it. ~ Barnet Bain, Producer of What Dreams May Come, and The Celestine Prophecy. ;
