X FLARE! Did I just mention 3 hours ago something about an X flare? Well, an X1 happened just minutes after I posted the latest SUN TODAY. It was from sunspot region AR3217 in the SE. This is the 13th X flare of SC25 and by coincidence the 13th biggest flare of the cycle so far.

(see earlier tweets) plus 3 M flares & high Cs. 3) Five magnetic regions on the far side of the Sun. How many have spots? 4) Most of the activity has come from AR3217 in the SE but a lone M1 flare from the west limb. 5) 11 CMEs yesterday.

TORTURED MAGN[E]TIC LOOPS: Note these large-scale loops (see inset) on the NE limb of the Sun. They are continuously changing. That process is called "magnetic reconnection" and it releases the energy stored in the magnetic fields by the twisting and stretching of the Sun's dynamics

CME WATCH - 2023.02.12: The CMEs at the beginning of the movie, you saw at the end of yesterday's post (it's a 2-day movie). Most of the rest of the time there is a steady out-flow from all round the disk, except a small CME along the streamer in the southwest.

Big prominence in SE limb. New region in NE growing rapidly. 5) Only five CMEs yesterday.

Absolutely insane! Yesterday's X1.1 class #SolarFlare was observed in high resolution by the NASA IRIS mission. IRIS observes with a small field-of-view, so catching the largest flares is rare. But just look at this, I haven't seen a flare observation this cool in a long time. ☀️

So, that flare was big stuff! Glad we weren’t in the way!

For anyone interested, the data is here. Congrats to the IRIS science planners for catching this one! https://lmsal.com/hek/hcr?cmd=view-event&event-id=ivo%3A%2F%2Fsot.lmsal.com%2FVO...

CME WATCH - 2023.02.13: Only two interesting CME's in the last day. The first is off the SW limb - you can see the streamer brighten just before the eruption. The second is directly off the east limb. It is larger and faster than the first. Neither pose a threat to the Earth.

A PROMINENCE TRIES TO ERUPT: This is a 24-hour movie where this huge prominence on the northeast limb gets moved around by the dynamics of the Sun's magnetic field, becomes unstable, and tries to erupt but eventually fails and ignominiously falls back onto the photosphere.

LONG DURATION FLARE: An M3 flare started at about 12:00 UT today and an hour later is still above M flare threshold! It is likely from sunspot region AR3214 which is currently rotating off the visible Sun over the NW limb. It may have been somewhat larger due to limb occultation.

HIGH LATITUDE REGIONS: 2 high-latitude regions have appeared on the Sun. The one in the N. hemisphere had sufficient spots for NOAA to number it AR3224. It was at about +38 degrees! The one in the South was at -35 degrees but is a reverse polarity region. Signs of SC26 starting?

“Signs of SC26 starting?” LOLOLOLOL! Strong knows about the many many crap theories and conman spiels about the sun. “Reverse polarity” is a neat dig at Zharkova and her zany theory re the sun, ice age etc.

LARGE SUNSPOT GROUP EMERGING: This video shows the initial emergence and rapid growth of sunspot region AR3226 in the NE part of the Sun. Compare its initial tiny spots to the Earth with its current size which the main spot alone can contain 5 Earths!

I trust nobody on OzPolitic now believes that the sun is in a GSM? LOL, stupid idea but profitable for some! An active sun and oceans warmed by three La Ninas on the trot—the next ENSO neutral condition is going to bring cruel heat!

CME WATCH - 2023.02.15: It starts with the spectacular CME off the east limb (left) that we saw yesterday. Then two near simultaneous faint CMEs - one off the SW limb and the other off the east limb. Looks as if the streamer in the SW is about to erupt.

GEOMAGNETIC STORM IN PROGRESS: A weak geomagnetic storm is currently impacting the Earth. It is a G1 (Kp=5) event whose main impact will be some nice aurora at high latitudes, unless it intensifies. Stay tuned for any developments. Solar wind at about 450 km/s.
