A massive coronal hole is now turning directly toward Earth, sending streams of high-speed solar wind racing through space toward our planet. Forecasters are watching for possible G1-G2 geomagnetic storm conditions beginning around May 14, which could trigger stronger auroral activity across parts of the […]
☀️⚡ A stunning coronal mass ejection exploded from the Sun during this morning’s powerful M5.7 solar flare, launching massive waves of superheated plasma into space in an incredible display of solar energy. Unfortunately for aurora lovers, this CME was not directed toward Earth — meaning […]
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.
