X2.1 SOLAR FLARE + CME - just now

No cme from that flare?

waiting for images to update to see
i will post the sek i have access to the images

Just like TERRAL03 said. His timeline says, watch for an increase in solar storms starting from September 5th - September 11th. Now we have an M-class and now a X-class (might be a high M class, but whatever, still sparkling nicely, the sun that is).


ALL HAIL TERRAL03 !!!!!

All kidding aside; thank you Ninrez. This is from me personally, I really appreciate your vigilance on the subject, your sharing of data/facts/thought, and your work with others within the GLP community. It's a pleasure to watch/read your work. Many thanks !!!

Magnetosphere is taking a pounding even before the CME's today. Wait until the plasma hits from this one.

Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be moderate during the period (07 - 09 September) with more M-class flare activity likely from Region 1283.

What should we expect from this flare? Any ideas?

Cloud cover; colder temps.

HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY!!
