After low solar activity the Sun erupted today with a moderate solar flare. This latest event started at 04:33 and peaked at 04:38 UTC Monday, August 6, 2012 with M1.6 solar flare. The source of this event was probably a new region now about to rotate into view off the

New Active Region 1536 erupted with moderate solar flare today. The event peaked at 15:48 UTC on July 30, 2012 measuring M1.1. This is first M-class solar flare from Region 1536.At 14:03 UTC today Region 1532 (S19E14) erupted with C8.8 flare. Analysis with

On July 28, 2012 at 20:56 UTC Region 1532 unleashed M6.1 solar flare. The solar flare did genarate Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) it does not look Earth directed. The sunspot is still too far off the disk center to be very geoeffective. This will change in the following

On July 27, 2012 emerging Region 1532 unleashed an M-class solar flare. This latest event started at 17:17 and peaked at 17:26 UTC as M2.7 solar flare.  It does not look like it produced a substantial CME and even if it did it was not Earth directed.A Type IV

Region 1520 is still very active and located on the western limb. Latest event from this Sunspot started on July 19, 2012 at 05:13 and peaked at 5:58 UTC at M7.7. It looks like strong CME was released but since 1520 is located on the western limb it was not be Earth

Notorious Sunspot 1515 produced yet another strong M-class solar flare. This event started at 16:23 UTC on July 8, 2012, peaked 16:32 UTC at M6.9 and ended at 16:42 UTC. Sunspot 1515 is about to rotate to western limb so huge CME it has produced was not Earth

The Sun keeps producing M-class flares for second day in a row. We are now bound to get used to M-class same as we did with C-class. Yesterday we saw 5 strong M-class flares – today we reached that number before 8:00 UTC. The day is still not over and we have

It does not seem to stop. Region 1515 just produced another solar flare measuring M5.3. The event started 9:47, peaked 9:55 at M5.3 and ended 9:57 UTC on July 4, 2012.Potential Impacts: Area of impact centered primarily on sub-solar point on the sunlit side of

After series of C-class flares, for last couple of hours, Region 1515 just produced another M-class solar flare. On July 4, 2012 an M2 solar flare peaked at 04:37 UTC. The event started at 04:37 and ended at 04:45 UTC.A Type IV radio emission was measuered.Type IV

Sunspot 1515 just produced another M-class solar flare. The event started 19:59, peaked 20:07 at M3.8 and ended at 20:13 UTC, July 2, 2012. This large Sunspot cluster could generate a major solar flare within the next couple of days.This is a second M-class solar

An M-class solar flare reaching M5.6 peaked at 10:52 UTC on July 2, 2012 from Region 1515. An R2 Moderate radio blackout was reported. This event generated a 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare) along with a Type II Sweep Frequency Event. This region is in a great location for

Region 1513 (N16E03) produced an M2.8 solar flare on July 01, 2012 at 19:18 UTC.Region 1513 did not show any significant growth or decay during the period of June 31 – July 1. Region 1515 (S17E17) continued to grow in areal coverage and is now 850 millionths.

Sunspot 1513 produced a quick M1.0 solar flare at 12:52 UTC on June 30. Sunspots 1513 and 1515 have Beta-Gamma magnetic configurations that harbors energy for strong solar flares. NOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of continued M-flares during the next 24 hours

Solar activity is now at moderate levels with a short duration M2.4 Solar Flare around Sunspot 1513 located in the northeast quadrant on June 28. This region continues to show signs of growth. No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections was released. There is R1 Radio

Another long duration, moderate, M1.9 solar flare  erupted from Sunspot 1504 on June 14, 2012. A 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare) was recorded measuring 1400sfu and lasted for 103 minutes. The plasma cloud generated looks to be Earth directed and may impact Earth by

A long duration solar flare eruption measuring M1.2 took place at 13:10 UTC Wednesday, June 13, 2012. The flare was centered around Sunspot 1504. Associated was Type IV Radio Emission and a 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare).  The event lasted nearly 2 hours. Sunspot 1504

Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from May 06/21:00 UTC to May 07/21:00 UTC: Solar activity has been at moderate levels for the past 24 hours.Even though Region 1476 (N10E48) is the largest, 810 Millionths, and most magnetically complex,

Solar activity is now at moderate levels and is increasing. New and active Sunspot 1476 rotated into view off the northeast limb and has so far produced a pair of M-Class flares within the past 24 hours. There will continue to be a chance for another moderate solar

Old Sunspot 1431 is now rotating back into view off the southeast limb and is also producing solar flares. So far this afternoon it produced a minor C6.5 flare, followed by a moderate M1.0 event at 19:40 UTC. Various small sunspots did form including regions 1441, 1442
