Marcel de Bont Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Sometimes the Sun gets her magnetic fields twisted in strange ways... she's a mysterious lady. Strongest flare of SC25 thus far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceWeather5464 Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Long duration X2 flare wow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel de Bont Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Yeah, sometimes regions flare that look like they shouldn't and the other way around. But the region is still a bit close to the limb to judge its full potential. But X2 seems possible! Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinYoongi Posted February 17, 2023 Author Share Posted February 17, 2023 okay. what about eruptivenes? is there a chance for earth impact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozy Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 The dimming looks to be going all sorts of directions judging by 195 Angstroms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinYoongi Posted February 17, 2023 Author Share Posted February 17, 2023 and what does that mean? i mean, what does it mean for earth impact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozy Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) That it COULD possibly have an earth directed component Edited February 17, 2023 by mozy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinYoongi Posted February 17, 2023 Author Share Posted February 17, 2023 " Imagery courtesy of SSO/AIA 193 shows a wave of plasma leaving the flare site which means a coronal mass ejection (CME) is likely. Furthermore, a Type II radio emission with an estimated velocity of 2407 km/s was recorded. Although the region is not yet directly facing Earth, an Earth bound component could still be likely."

Popular Post Sam Warfel Posted February 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2023 As the strongest flare of the SC so far in terms of peak strength, AND being slow peaking and long duration, this is a beast of flare, probably the most powerful I've ever seen 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinYoongi Posted February 17, 2023 Author Share Posted February 17, 2023 @mozy looks north east to me "Appears to be significantly eruptive with an EUV wave traversing west back towards central meridian as seen in SDO 193. Likely a partial halo or full halo, and will be fast." im so confused now @Marcel de Bont can you shed some light on this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Warfel Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 The dimming is already substantial, and it's only partly processed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
