I guess that was technically from a filament, but I'd say it was definitely a filament associated with this region, a so-called active region filament (which tend to be more like smaller and shorter-lived versions of their standalone counterparts, and are more likely to erupt). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesterface23 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Taking a close look at the CME this morning with fresh eyes, the CME may be a glancing blow. These past 2 CMEs are fairly similar. Maybe as little as a 10 degree shift in either direction and it would be easy to see if they are a bulk hit or glancing blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgrant26 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Did we get another CME originating from this region? Looked like another filament snap at around 13:30 UT. Smaller than the one from yesterday but pretty easy to see in the 304 Red wavelength movie. https://sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/aiahmi/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did also see that thin black cloud (filament?) erupting from this region at this time, but I haven't seen anything in the coronagraphs, and there was no coronal dimming.

Ester89 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 For a few hours a (positive) blue spot has been growing at high speed next to the big red one. It doesn't have an umbra in the intensitygram, but I have been struck by how quickly it has evolved and how close is to the large negative spot. If this evolution continues, it could get interesting soon. That itself isn't some kind of mistake, I expect opinions from someone who understands more about the matter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solen (Jan Alvestad) identify three delta groups and some mixing of polarity. He classifies it as BGD. N. Edited July 16, 2023 by Newbie 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(im on vacation, couldnt keep up with space weather this week) It's at around 40W; not impossible for something Earth-directed from there, but getting less likely. This eruption also seemed like it was directed too much southward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesterface23 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Tough to tell. C2 has a light some type of halo, but C3 is only at 3 hour intervals plus there is a different western limb/farside eruption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philalethes Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Looks like some farewell fireworks from this region; the first blast looked pretty hefty, and this second flare is even stronger than the first one, seems to be topping out at M5 as I type this. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
