3gMike Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 13 hours ago, legend said: Maybe we will get lucky and the region wakes up a little as it appears over limb onto disc! The glow coming off is just as magnificent as the large regions that are now departing. It is easy to be misled by the brightness at the limb. If you continue to watch you will see that the area fades as it comes further onto the disk. It is now ( Monday 08:00 UTC) possible to detect the leading edge on HMI, coming round the limb at about 12 degrees latitude. As you say, let's hope it brings some more activity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I don’t see anything exciting yet on the east limb, however the 10.7 solar flux is risin again towards 200. Good news but would like to see region 486 from cycle 23 return from the dead!🤣🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, as I was typing the above sentence, I just did a double-check, and apparently there's an M-flare going on now from one of the regions that are over the limb and not visible yet, so that was probably also contributing to the flux.

Absolutely beautiful eruption where you easily could see the front, cavity and core of the CME. Love seeing these bad boys from the side. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gMike Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 One to watch ? AR3216, currently shown as an Alpha spot, is on the exact coordinates which supported AR3186 on the last rotation. It produced 7 M flares and 1 X flare between Jan 10 and Jan 13, and was then fairly quiet for the remainder of the time on disk. Given that it appears to have survived transition of the farside we might hope that it re-develops on this pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philalethes Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Looks like 3213 is the one stealing the show for now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philalethes Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 SolarSoft just registered a series of medium-sized C-flares from slightly different positions near the limb. Seems to be the region that's coming into view now. Looks like it's got some size to it, but it's hard to say at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be able to get a better view tomorrow. Edited February 8, 2023 by 3gMike Added STEREO image 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris, HB9DFG Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) Hello all Ok, a nice X-Flare is starting right now at the eastern limb, but I stay calm. Seems to become one of those "stay tuned" and "maybe a glancing blow" type again. Goodbye nice CME, maybe next time...or next time...or next time...or...

hamateur 1953 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 (edited) The M flare this morning appears to have come from a presently unnamed incoming active region in approximately the same latitude as 13229. It definitely bears watching imho. It now has a number 13334 . btw. Hopefully, Arjemma will find the delta with her electron microscope before it blasts itself into space! 🤣🤣 Edited February 20, 2023 by hamateur 1953 news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Warfel Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 I find it odd that these ARs are such a relatively high latitude, with the solar cycle reasonably well advanced now I would have thought we’d see more lower latitude spots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Yes. one might assume we had another year and a half to go until Solar maximum. Always have a few “ ringers” in any cycle to prove the rule anyhow… 1 hour ago, Sam Warfel said: I find it odd that these ARs are such a relatively high latitude, with the solar cycle reasonably well advanced now I would have thought we’d see more lower latitude spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
