Near X-Flare
June 23, 2024 @ 14:50 UTC
"Is our old pal #AR3664 (3697 and now 3723) still active?"Of course it is. A near #XFlare (M9.3) was detected at 13:01 UTC (Jun 23). The flare itself was fairly rapid, so a coronal mass ejection (CME) is likely not associated. We will get a better at the returning flare champion over the next few days.
"Now back for the third time, AR 3664 (3697) is returning into view from off the farside of the Sun. This region was first assigned 3664 on May 1st and would go on to produce non stop X-Flares and the resulting eruptions were responsible for the extreme #geomagnetic storm on May 10-11. It would reappear again on May 28th and was reassigned AR 3697 and would produce additional major solar flares. What will it have in store for us this time around? Stay tuned to find out."

No #GeomagneticStorm predicted yet. But with former #AR3664 (now #AR3697) belching out big flares, we might be in for another #Aurora treat soon...

#XFlares Are Piling Up
June 1, 2024 @ 10:20 UTC"Good morning. How about another X-Flare!
"The latest event measuring X1.4 was just detected around AR 3697 (3664) at 08:48 UTC (Jun 1). Much like the X-Flare yesterday evening, a CME does not appear to be associated with this event. Some dimming was observed to the north of 3697 before this event, but coronagraph imagery does not seem to reveal any plasma leaving the Sun. The flare producing machine is now in a good location for potential Earth directed eruptions.
"And with this now being the 49th X-Flare of the current solar cycle, we have tied the X-Flare total from the previous solar cycle 24. When will #50 take place? Stay tuned to find out."

#SpaceWeather update via #SolarHam
"So is old region #AR3664 still active? Of course it is!
"An X2.9 solar flare was observed around the returning region at 07:08 UTC (May 27, 2024). The event is also responsible for an energetic coronal mass ejection (#CME) now emerging in updated coronagraph imagery. Because the sunspot region is still located behind the east limb, the flare itself was likely stronger than the X2.9 measurement. The CME itself should be directed away from our planet. We may see some busy days ahead of us. Stay tuned!"

Estimated X12 #SolarFlare from [presumed] #AR3664, which is on the far side of the Sun right now.
#CarringtonEvent was believed to be X45.
#AR3664 will be Earth-facing again soon.
"A fast moving, full halo coronal mass ejection (CME) is seen leaving the Sun this morning beginning around 05:30 UTC (May 20). Based on updated imagery, this event occurred on the farside of the Sun and is not Earth directed. Perhaps our old friend AR 3664 is up to its old tricks again. We should begin to see the big sunspot region turn back into view early next week."

#AR3664 is one big sunspot group and active region.
Pictured, a large multi-pronged solar prominence was captured extending from chaotic sunspot region AR 3664 out into space, just one example of the particle clouds ejected from this violent solar region.

The latest #Spaceweather update from Spaceweather.com
"Because the sunspot is behind the edge of the solar disk, the flare was partially #eclipsed. It was probably even stronger than it appeared. 'X8.7' is almost certainly an underestimate of the flare's true strength.
"Extreme ultraviolet radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere, causing a deep shortwave #RadioBlackout over the Americas. Ham radio operators, aviators and mariners may have noticed a sudden loss of signal at all frequencies below 30 MHz.
"Subatomic debris from this event might soon reach Earth, guided toward our planet by the #ParkerSpiral. Also, a #CME might be in the offing. Stay tuned for updates!
"EARTH IS CONNECTED TO SUNSPOT AR3664: Giant sunspot AR3664 is no longer facing Earth. That makes it extra dangerous. The #Carrington-class sunspot is passing over the sun's western limb--a region of the sun that is magnetically connected to our planet. Indeed, we are feeling the effects of that connection right now.
"What's causing this? Protons accelerated by solar flares in the magnetic canopy of #AR3664 are following the #ParkerSpiral back to Earth. Think of it as a magnetic superhighway. The arriving particles are funneled by our planet's magnetic field toward the poles where they ionize the atmosphere and interfere with the normal transmission of shortwave radio."

"Because the sunspot is behind the edge of the solar disk, the flare was partially #eclipsed. It was probably even stronger than it appeared. 'X8.7' is almost certainly an underestimate of the flare's true strength.
"Extreme ultraviolet radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere, causing a deep shortwave #RadioBlackout over the Americas. Ham radio operators, aviators and mariners may have noticed a sudden loss of signal at all frequencies below 30 MHz.
"Subatomic debris from this event might soon reach Earth, guided toward our planet by the #ParkerSpiral. Also, a #CME might be in the offing. Stay tuned for updates!
"EARTH IS CONNECTED TO SUNSPOT AR3664: Giant sunspot AR3664 is no longer facing Earth. That makes it extra dangerous. The #Carrington-class sunspot is passing over the sun's western limb--a region of the sun that is magnetically connected to our planet. Indeed, we are feeling the effects of that connection right now.
"What's causing this? Protons accelerated by solar flares in the magnetic canopy of #AR3664 are following the #ParkerSpiral back to Earth. Think of it as a magnetic superhighway. The arriving particles are funneled by our planet's magnetic field toward the poles where they ionize the atmosphere and interfere with the normal transmission of shortwave radio."

#SolarHam #Spaceweather Update:
Largest #SolarFlare Of #SolarCycle25 Observed
May 14, 2024 @ 17:05 UTC (UPDATED)
"The largest solar flare of the current solar cycle 25, and largest since 2017 was just observed around deparing #AR3664 off the west limb. The #X8.7 event peaked at 16:51 UTC (May 14) causing a strong R3 level radio blackout directly over North America. More to follow.
"And Then...
"An eruption in the vicinity of newly assigned #AR3682 measuring M4.4 was observed at 17:38 UTC (May 14). This event looks to be eruptive, meaning a #CME will be produced.
"Solar Cycle 25 just kicked it up a notch!"
