    This region is really interesting. Complex and facing Earth right now with a solid potential for a large flare. It has the ingredients for fireworks. Exciting!

    I just checked the unsigned flux for this region again (here), and it has increased to 8.3e+22 Mx now, which is closer to the upper part of the moderate range identified in the paper on magnetic cagin

  • no to anyone who is interested: I am alive and well after the incident in Moscow

I think it will actually produce a CME that's worth talking about soon. The erratic pattern of coronal loops visible in 131aia is something I've noticed before long duration flare. Once those loops start shooting out that'll be a very good sign of an eruption. 

Good call. Haha. 

Yes, I agree this will produce a signifcant CME off the western hemisphere equator. A *very nice* flux rope has been developing above the region over the past few days. More sadness for Earth, but should look excellent in coronagraph! 

Yeah no CME from this flare, but just look at the overall area after the flare now, it's all moving/lifting, might be another eruption incoming if it keeps this movement up

Yep, it seems like just another slow CME from the region. AIA 171 looks cool though

AIA 171 & AIA 131 are my favorite. Pretty light shows and good observational data.

Now we just have to wait for the protons to rise haha

131 is definitely my favourite too. However I missed some details in a filament awhile back that 193 plainly showed.    3615 is currently mocking us by sticking its flare tongue out for over an hour now.

The M3.91 seems to have been 3615 as well but can't confirm, is it still cooking even after passing the limb? 131A seems to indicate it.
