CME Updates

More auroras are possible on Nov. 4th. A coronal mass ejection (CME) left the sun on Oct. 31st when a solar filament erupted; the cloud could deliver a glancing blow to Earth's magnetic field this Thursday. Aurora alerts: text, voice.

Measuring some 40,000 km wide and at least twice that in length, the behemoth active region is an easy target for backyard solar telescopes. Astronomers are encouraged to monitor the region: NOAA forecasters estimate a 60% chance of M-class solar flares during the next 24 hours. Eruptions today would not be Earth directed, but future eruptions could be as the sunspot turns toward our planet in the days ahead. Solar flare alerts: text, voice.

and some really awesome photos in the oct Aurora Gallery

i gotta get a better camera..wow

Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 153 Issued at 2200Z on 01 Jun 2012

IA.  Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from  31/2100Z
to 01/2100Z:  Solar activity was low.  C-class flares were observed
from both Region 1493 (N14E49) and newly numbered Region 1498
(N07E69).  The largest flare was a C2/1F at 01/1710Z from Region
1498, a Cso type group with a beta magnetic configuration.  Region
1493 was the largest region on the disk, occupying 170 millionths
and classified as a Dho type group with a beta magnetic
configuration.  New Regions 1496 (N16E59)  and 1497 (S22E34) were
also numbered yesterday.

IB.  Solar Activity Forecast:  Solar activity is expected to remain
low with a slight chance for an M-class event for the next three
days (02-04 June).

IIA.  Geophysical Activity Summary 31/2100Z to 01/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to unsettled levels.  A solar
sector boundary change, from positive to negative, was observed at
the ACE spacecraft between 01/01Z and 03Z.  Solar wind speed was
around 350 km/s.

IIB.  Geophysical Activity Forecast:  The geomagnetic field is
expected to begin at quiet levels on day 1 (2 June).  An increase to
unsettled to active levels is expected on days 2 and 3 (3-4 June)
with the arrival of a recurrent coronal hole high speed stream.  The
coronal hole high speed stream will also bring a slight chance for
isolated minor storm conditions.

III.  Event Probabilities 02 Jun-04 Jun
Class M    05/05/05
Class X    01/01/01
Proton     01/01/01
PCAF       green



now this,,Geophysical Activity Forecast

by the way C class up too 5% from 2%?

remember with CME location is everything,,

and it is Protons,,
just like,,
the Photo Electric Charge,,
is Science.

lets get cracking!get it protons/electrons//cracking,,:)

lol
luv it

too late,

ohhhh can u move this as well.

obviously not the correct thread.
