SpaceWeather5464 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 This sunspot has developed a lot in the past 48 hours and it's producing C class flares. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution arjemma Posted January 20 Solution Share Posted January 20 Interesting indeed. I wouldn't be surprised if it develops a gamma configuration soon (might even have it, I'm rusty in classifying gamma). I would say that this region is the most complex on the disk at the moment. I really hope it can fire out some nice plasma in the coming days as it rotates into a earth directed position 😎 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philalethes Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Seems to still be complexifying; still not very complex, but there's definitely a delta there now. Given the positive spot that's developing past the delta I'd say it would pass as a gamma too for the full BGD designation, but just barely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tniickck Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 there are 2 deltas and a gamma-configuration right now. a nice BGD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And looks as if its M class material very soon as well. C classes climbing steadily too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landon Moeller Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 CME departing from this region now on LASCO due to the most recent eruption. It appears to have a width of about 170°, so perhaps a weak glancing blow in a few days 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post chronical Posted January 21 Popular Post Share Posted January 21 (edited) It developed even more throughout the night, the negative spot grew a lot, a lot more little spots between the two big ones, could be interesting if it continues like that.

All while quite, Hopefully building up for a flare, And that's good because it's facing us soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_Wicklund Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Looks way more interesting than 24 hours ago. Look at all those sunspots forming fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinYoongi Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Noaa calls this region Delta but i dont really see deltas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philalethes Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Looks like most of the current complexity is located in the top left of the region now; I think that strictly speaking should be designated as a separate AR, but I guess it's all part of the same structure anyway. 7 minutes ago, MinYoongi said: Noaa calls this region Delta but i dont really see deltas The previous deltas between the two largest spots seem to be gone for now, but as per the above there are some spots that are at least close to being deltas in the top left part of the region. Not sure how often or how recently NOAA updates their classification; it's just once per day, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
