Popular Post Jesterface23 Posted January 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2023 Doesn't look like there is an eruptive CME that came with it, but WOO X-Class. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher S. Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) I think the green channel is better Checking all of the channels, this one is the last notable one besides the composites Edited January 6, 2023 by Christopher S. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even it was, we’d be be completely fine. For context, we’ve had many X flares just this solar cycle so far. Back in 2003, we took an X45, and had no trouble. They’re not dangerous. 1 hour ago, IlikeAuroras said: Looks like our first major flare of 2023 is an X-flare What a great start to 2023!

Popular Post Philalethes Posted January 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2023 4 hours ago, Orneno said: Back in 2003, we took an X45, and had no trouble. Well, it did do a little bit of damage; it blew some transformers and caused some outages, and also interrupted a large amount of satellite communications (and even damaged a satellite beyond repair from what I've read), as well as flight communications, which might have had some consequences that aren't necessarily that easy to measure. Clearly not a big problem for humanity as a whole, but nothing to scoff at either, since e.g. power outages can be pretty adverse during the wrong circumstances for those affected. This one is obviously nothing like that anyway, but it's fair to mention that there is at least some possibility of negative effects from extreme Solar weather. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamateur 1953 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Yes indeed, no biggie for us earth dwellers. Respectfully speaking, the only downside for this geezer is that I just missed seeing it live!! And little if any associated cme. At least we have about 13 or so days now to speculate on its future while it sits there like “ the singing frog” cartoon and refuses to perform. 🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vancanneyt Sander Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 No delta as far as I can see. Lots of faculae when it turned into view so that’s a sign it decayed after it’s big blow. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterface23 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 It looks like this would be dead regions 3162 and 3166, continuing region 3163, and new growth from the past rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but it looks like it may have potential to develop a delta in marked region. 28 minutes ago, Jesterface23 said: It looks like this would be dead regions 3162 and 3166, continuing region 3163, and new growth from the past rotation. Yes, it is in that general area and AR3163 was the only one to produce much activity on last rotation. At this stage it is not clear that it has grown much in terms of area since last rotation.
