SOLAR CYCLE UPDATE: Solar Cycle 25 continues to overperform. Sunspot counts for Sept. 2021 were the highest in more than 5 years. And, for the 11th month in a row, the sunspot number has significantly exceeded the official forecast.

https://imgur.com/qiHcDVa


The plot above shows sunspot counts vs. time. The red curve traces the forecast issued by the NOAA/NASA Solar Cycle 25 Prediction Panel in 2019. It calls for a relatively weak solar cycle peaking in July 2025.

The sun has a mind of its own, though. Higher-than-expected sunspot counts suggest a stronger cycle, with a peak occurring in late 2024 instead of mid-2025. This is good news for aurora watchers, but maybe not so good for the Internet.

 Quoting: Simple27


Cycle 25 didn't even kick off until around last Thanksgiving (NOV. 2020), so we should expect to see a lot of big spots and large X-flares in the next few years.

I was just going to post about potential for large flares from AR2882. I was thinking of maybe an M or even X at some point. I happened to glance at the X-Ray flux and lo-and-behold we had a nice C5.5. Previously 2882 only produced weak B-flares. Large sunspots can be quiet and stable then slowly decay; OR they may become unstable and release a big flare or two.

C5.5 flare from AR2882:

Solar Activity

.24 hr Summary...
Solar activity reached low levels and one sunspot group remained present
on the visible disk. Region 2880 (N31W64) decayed to plage, while Region
2882 (N17E28, Dso/beta-gamma) underwent some configuration changes. The
trailing spots underwent some dissipation, however, new opposite
polarity spots developed just north of the main symmetrical spot - in
close proximity.
The region was the source of a C5 flare at 07/0246 UTC.
Additionally, a C1 flare occurred at 07/2231 UTC from a region just
beyond [wrong...see above post] the southeast limb. So far there have been no indications of an
associated CME.

There have been a few faint, slow CMEs observed off the W and SW limbs,
and although initial indications are non-Earth directed components,
analysis is underway to determine with more certainty.

.Forecast...
Very low solar activity is expected with a slight chance for C-class
flares 08-10 Oct.

 Quoting: The Mad Machinist


Actually, a fast CME pushes the ambient solar wind. This is what leads to a CME 'impact' when it reaches our magnetosphere.

And, no, it won't have any effect on volcanoes (especially near the equator). Of course the auroras over the volcano in Iceland (or Alaska) will make for some awesome photo-ops.

EARTH-DIRECTED SOLAR FLARE AND CME: Restless sunspot AR2882 erupted this morning, Oct. 9th (0640 UT), producing a strong M2-class solar flare and an Earth-directed CME. NASA"s Solar Dynamics captured the extreme ultraviolet flash:

https://imgur.com/ycbpvkr


Radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere. This, in turn, caused a shortwave radio blackout over the Indian Ocean. Aviators, ham radio operators, and ships at sea may have noticed strange propagation effects at frequencies below 25 MHz.

https://imgur.com/ows3IWl


New images from SOHO confirm that the flare hurled a CME almost directly toward Earth. The storm cloud will probably reach Earth Oct. 12th, potentially sparking G1 to G2-class geomagnetic storms. Stay tuned for updates.
