A massive equatorial coronal hole is now turning directly toward Earth — and conditions in the Sun’s atmosphere are becoming increasingly active. Embedded within this huge solar breach is Active Region 4436, which has now unleashed a strong M5.7 solar flare. Early observations suggest a […]

A massive coronal hole is rotating into an Earth-facing position and could begin impacting our planet around May 14–15. This enormous negative-polarity solar feature is expected to send faster solar wind streams toward Earth, potentially triggering G1 to G2 geomagnetic storm conditions (Kp 5–6). Aurora […]

It was another fairly calm day, with the only Solar feature that was a bit bothersome being Solar Wind Speed averaging 500 km/sec. NOAA and the UK’s MetOffice are expecting the next 3 days to improve, despite the possible incoming CME Sideswipe. Solar Wind Speed […]

A BILLION TONS OF PLASMA JUST LEFT THE SUN. 🚨🟣 What you are looking at is a massive Coronal Mass Ejection (CME)—a violent explosion of twisting magnetic fields and superheated matter bursting directly from the Sun’s atmosphere. When an eruption of this unbelievable magnitude occurs, […]

The Sun is easing back after a surprise G2 geomagnetic storm caught forecasters off guard this week. Activity is now mostly C-class, but AR4432 (beta-gamma) and a giant centered coronal hole are ones to watch No Earth-directed CMEs in the pipeline for now.

We got to enjoy calm measurements across all Solar features beginning about 11.00a CDT this morning after a couple hours of HP = 5 (G1) Geomagnetic Storms last night, but Solar Wind Speed finally stayed below 400 km/sec after 11.00a CDT also. 😊 . Solar […]

G1 GEOMAGNETIC STORM ALERT by Glynce 🟡 Kp Index: 5 🕒 May 4 (19:45 UTC) → May 5 (00:00 UTC) A massive dark hole has opened on the Sun… and it’s blasting Earth right now.☀️🛡️ That eerie dark patch isn’t a shadow—it’s a “coronal hole.” […]
