this looks like a very active spot coming onto the disk looking at this flare and CME it launched

Fantastic!

I’m not seeing much in that photo though, what are we meant to be looking at @Tomasz Mielec?

If you look veeeery closely you can see that there is Penumbra showing! (I hope Penumbra is the right word lol) 

You can see that its not just an area of plage but it contains 1 or more sunspots. :)

For now we see one spot but maybe behind limb it's more, this region will be showing us more in next 24-48 hours.

What do you mean by 2013?

Not dangerous to us! No worries 😊

 

 

By the way: is it really alpha class, or couldnt it be assigned a proper classification due to limb shortening? I cant believe an A-class sunspot caused yesterdays C-Class flares 😂

If it is too close to the limb, they're unable to do a magnetic classification thus it often starts with alpha and updated once it gets more clear. Currently it's only one polarity spot so alpha is justified

2 October 2013 was maximum Kp8-, this also due to a CME impact but with less speed. The IMF was stronger and field was at max -26nT which resulted in a brief Kp8-. The storm we had was stronger. Please don't be off topic, this is about a new region and not about past geomagnetic storm
