MinYoongi Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Just now, mozy said: We've discussed & seen these plenty of times so yes😄 I was unsure, since most of the times what i thought to be "loops rising" or "mass ejecting" were really filaments that i did not spot. 💀😄 I did not really know until now that "can just happen" - my impression was that it has to be tied to a filament. So mozy do you know / what is your opinion if there could be an earth directed component? I posted some stereo A data and im playing back and forth the 195 dimming but i have no clue really. you said its "pretty big" so i thought i shoot the question.

These kinds of eruptions is what gave us that G4 storm back in March, I've seen them occur from actual regions, plage or just before/when sunspots start growing around a certain area. My favorite kind of eruption tbh since you can just watch it for a while and wait in excitement, they always produce impressive CME's since it literally clears everything around it. And these are the ones that can trigger big flares if they occur over actual sunspots. (Like in March for example with that X1 together with the southern region) We saw this too yesterday with the limb flare at M6.6 Edited May 14 by mozy 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Like in March for example with that X1 together with the southern region) Thank you for the great explanation, it makes much more sense now and i can recognize i've seen it before but just did not classify it as for what it was. I did not know they can occur over sunspots, i always thought its the Flare that triggers the movement not the other way around - but it makes sense since filaments can do the same and vice versa. https://gyazo.com/263be0cbc0f2a5dce89920c1968868d0 I made you a video of the Dimming, to me theres not much going west, most goes east ? for anyone that does not want to watch the whole video, heres a picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaring can trigger it too, don't think there's a certain rule, they just happen anytime it seems like. Definitely looks eastwards, but wouldn't surprise me if something could come our way since these are so broad, but I wouldn't bet on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 As far as I understand (please correct me if I'm wrong): If filaments lift up and break apart, they release the stored magnetic energy as x-rays, and thus we see a flare. But filaments can also erupt if a flare of a nearby AR is disturbing the magnetic field lines. Waiting for LASCO 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinYoongi Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Thank you 😊😊👍🏻 that’s likely the reason a few years back I saw an m class from a plage. Man.. have not seen a plage in a while 😆 did you check out stereos coronagraph and my dimmings? Maybe interesting ☺️🌸 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinYoongi Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 @mozy @helios Lasco backfilled so whats the news? 😎 If this is earth directed (which i dont know) it might interest @Jesterface23 for his forecastings too ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full, slightly, glance, no glance? I posted a dimming further up the thread if youre interested, a video of the dimming too. To me it looked like almost nothing erupted to the earth. There are not many frames yet, hence i know you cant say much about speed etc. im just interested if theres an earth directed component or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I think it is not earth directed. Maybe we see a bit more later, but glancing blow at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterface23 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 A filament eruption on the northeast disk just tried to put the X8.79 flare CME to shame. It might be faster than the flare CME. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the M4 filament eruption. 7 hours ago, MinYoongi said: This M1 filament eruption looks like it will be in like for a glancing blow. It may have around 3.5 days of travel time to L1, so there is a chance it may not arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danderson400 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 The X8 flare didn't have a strong type II so it would have likely been G2 or G3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinYoongi Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 There seems to be another eruption up north. Looking at Suvi it looks to be directed northeast so far I wonder if it’s a filament. btw : does someone use gong for filaments ? I recently started !

Calder Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) I see a filament lifting in the southeast. From what I can see, it looks like it’s mostly going south. Edited May 18 by Calder Added gif 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't look too shabby, wouldn't surprise me if we get a hit from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
