No, that’s too early. It is about halfway to the east limb, so my guess is late 29th

So 4055 is the double-'monster' tagged P100 on GONG far-side?

Dear @Jhon Henry Osorio Orozco

Your enthusiasm is great and infectious, but please take to heart what someone said to you a short while back in the forums: Is what you're about to make a post about interesting or noteworthy to others - Is it likely to influence the future geomagnetic activity on our planet, or deviating from the norm in such a way that others might find it interested as well?

In the case of new regions about to rotate into view I personally look at factors like large and active arcs, previous CMEs most likely produced by the region about to rotate into view, GONG data that shows the region having a high magnetic footprint etc. If it matches none of those I ignore it until we know more about it.

The sun is an amazing thing and it's easy to find almost everything about it interesting and captivating, but if everyone posted about every 'little' burp and prominence this forum would descend into chaos.

Estimado@Jhon Henry Osorio Orozco

Su entusiasmo es grande y contagioso, pero tome en serio lo que alguien le dijo hace poco en los foros: ¿Lo que está a punto de publicar es interesante o digno de mención para otros? ¿Es probable que influya en la actividad geomagnética futura en nuestro planeta, o se desvíe de la norma de tal manera que otros también puedan encontrarlo interesante?

En el caso de nuevas regiones que están a punto de aparecer a la vista, personalmente miro factores como arcos grandes y activos, CME anteriores probablemente producidos por la región que está a punto de aparecer a la vista, datos GONG que muestran que la región tiene una huella magnética alta, etc. Si no coincide con ninguno de ellos, lo ignoro hasta que sepamos más al respecto.

El sol es una cosa asombrosa y es fácil encontrar casi todo lo relacionado con él interesante y cautivador, pero si todo el mundo publicara sobre cada "pequeño" eructo y prominencia, este foro se convertiría en un caos.

In the case of the filament eruption in front of us, it is certain to have a slight impact component due to its location; as for the regions we have to wait for them to arrive from our side to analyze the polarities of complexity, the one observed in the southeast is the most active, but with no records of significant flare events so far.

As many have pointed out, Don't try to be the "first" to notice something.

Everyone can independently analyze the magnetic complexity and size of active regions as they appear and when they are adequately in view such that their characteristics are not pure speculation, then and only then can constructive and informative discussion surrounding them be had. i.e. aim for quality of posts not quantity.

Further not every geoeffective CME is noteworthy, (and even some non-geoeffective CMEs can be very noteworthy as the massive limb eruption a few weeks ago), much less every semi-active region, and it is often quite obvious on Chronographs whether they will be significant enough to merit discussion. So flooding the forums with inconsequential information is not only useless, and I speak for myself in this last bit, It can also be slightly annoying when everyone is trying to be professional and informative to see loads of "bloat" on the forum.

I say all of this in the most compassionate way I can.

It has been suggested previously that you first try to learn the Forum "culture" for a while before being active in discussion.

I completely agree with Nico above. In addition I found one response along the lines of reposting warnings to be worrisome. That he was just being cautious. Ok. Were he a satellite operator I might understand the why of that, but it shouldn’t include a rebroadcasting of publicly available material imo. There are people who ( no thanks to youtube scare videos) are uninformed about our power delivery infrastructures and the recent improvements over the last years that make a catastrophe very unlikely if not impossible.

Thank you. Well said.

Sorry for the offtopic, apparently he is having difficulty understanding the essence of certain things, I can suggest being more tolerant of him, I feel he is trying very hard.

This looks like it could be AR4055 returning.
the long awaited reappearance. It seemingly grew on GONG and could possibly have merged with AR4058 going by its growth and northward migration.

That said it does not look exceedingly active on the farside as @Samrau has pointed out, producing very little activity we can see on chronographs.

I am seeing what can only be PEA activity around South 25 at E90 currently. I don’t see anything in Regions Due to Return from last rotation though. There seems to be 131 action all along the NH a bit further back. I never thought I would wish for a dive in average latitudes, but if that gives us more CMEs, I would sound the warning Klaxon myself Dive! Dive! 🤣🤣. Btw 4055 just showed up on RDR on our board. (Left us at N 07)

Since I'm guessing your heart hasn't stopped, what does PEA stand for in this context? 😝

Post Eruptive Arcades. They are large towering arches that follow many CMEs and sometimes are spectacular. I will repost a particularly cool video If I can find it from NASA.

This one?

This one was the one I had in mind. Was originally posted by member @KW2P some time back.

Amazing . Looked the event up on Jhelioviewer , was wondering how long the event was , must be a bit over 24 hours worth of footage there in just over 4 mins .

That was absolutely stunning 😍

Sure is!! I love the dripping plasma especially. Very cool!! Fortunately these were on the limb, giving an ideal view for photography. When we are looking directly at them on the face, sometimes the only thing we will see is a bright blob in 94 and 131 angstrom photographs. And about a 20-30 SFI increase for the duration.

Yeah I've seen them many times in 171Å as well but nothing that comes close to the complexity and beauty of that video.

well, the old AR 4055 are decreasing now, bad news, there will be nothing special bring to us...

the only good thing about that Region is Its giving us a minor uptick with periodic C1 flares Better then Nothing for now then what these painful Past 5 days Hopefully the rieger cycle uptick brings a Decent uptick in activity in about 3 weeks.
