Other than a far-side filament snap just beyond the Eastern limb a little while ago, I'm not seeing anything that looks very noteworthy. Are you maybe referring to the filament on the Western side near the limb? (East and West are reversed when looking at the sun) If so, that filament that's almost to the limb does look a little juicy. https://earthsky.org/sun/east-and-west-on-the-sun-reversed/ Edited August 19, 2023 by cgrant26 Added link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheebee Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 if you mean this one, i was about to say its gone all wobbly ( ive been getting excited about it all day i know im a bit mad ) then yes mate, it just went off WHOO HOOOO!! ooooh i get all excited so thats the western limb? i was hoping those spots either side might dislodge it, i thank God and im so excited, i cant help it i might be a little premature but yeh, its looking good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheebee Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) is the black line center disc a coronal hole or a filament please? Edited August 21, 2023 by cheebee manners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheebee Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 yeah thats the one, thankyou, it was so thin i couldnt tell. i actually didnt even spot the small filament next to it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesterface23 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Hopefully the coronagraph imagery gives us a surprise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Stanton Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 The latest imagery shows a faint full-halo CME presumably from the filament eruption a few hours ago. It seems slow considering it (the CME) doesn't show up until about two hours after the initial eruption and the speed isn't all that quick looking from what we can see of it thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgrant26 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Finally, something full halo. Super slow and pretty unimpressive looking in C2 and C3 so far though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 In addition it seems to me that we have a new AR northern hemisphere, center disc. At least looking only at 131 angstroms. About time. Imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterface23 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 So far I'd estimate a travel time of 2.5-3.5 days for the CME. A mildly bright full halo, but we will need the solar wind velocities to be low to see the arrival. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see how this could be Kp8 when its so slow? heres a screenshot from the CME scoreboard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd go along with that though, G2 possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tniickck Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 hoping for kp8 (even if it is nearly impossible) , ofc, it is quite dark at night in Moscow now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. That one in March was pretty wild. I've sen the wispy, slow moving aurora curtains many times before but that was the first time seeing what looked like rippling shock waves reverberating through them.
