Space Weather Space weather is currently fairly quiet. The X-ray flux has not exceeded C3 level in over six days. There has been some CME activity but none Earth-directed.

Space Weather A new coronal hole will be facing Earth an a day or two. This CH will push out a fast solar wind which is negatively polarised, so it should be good for aurora in 4-6 days.

Space Weather GOES-19's CORS1 solar imager caught the moon dancing around the sun this morning, as seen in this timelapse.

Space Weather A moderate G2 geomagnetic storm is in progress. The fast solar wind from a large coronal hole is now influencing the Earth's magnetic field. Aurora is visible at high-latitudes. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather Aurora Alert: Aurora may soon be visible to mid-latitudes as a effects of a coronal hole and glancing CME take hold. Aurora is currently visible at high-latitudes. A moderate substorm is in progress at Kiruna. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather Solar and geomagnetic conditions are currently mostly quiet.

Space Weather Forecast: A small solar storm was launched by AR4371 which could raise geomagnetic activity on 12/13 Feb. Aurora may be visible at high latitudes.

Space Weather Solar Flare Alert: There were three flares from AR4366 above M-level in the last few hours. M1.7 @11h19 UT 08 Feb M1.7 @11h47 UT 08 Feb M2.7 @13h47 UT 08 Feb The M2.7 flare was eruptive, producing a 10.7cm radio emission. There appears to be no earthward CME. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather AR4366 finally calmed down . It's not produced any flares greater than M-level for two days.

Space Weather CME Arrival: An interplanetary shock has been detected at ACE/DISCOVR (L1) indicating the arrival of the CME which originated from the X8.1 flare late on 01 Feb. The IMF strength is 22nT. A G1 geomagnetic storm warning is in effect for 05-07 Feb (UT). #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather Solar Flare Alert: A strong X4.2 flare peaked at 12h10 UT 04 Feb. This is the second strongest X-flare over the last four days. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Solar Flare Alert: An X1.5 flare peaked at ~14h05UT 02 Feb,. Another large flare is approaching X-level as I type this at 15h UT (currently at M7.2). #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather CME update: NOAA (US) and Euphoria (European) solar wind models suggest the CME imact could be a little later than the early NASA model.

Space Weather Solar Flare Alert: Multiple large X-Flares Apologies to BSky readers who will see this message split over multiple posts.

Space Weather Long duration flare continues! The flare dropped below M level for a while, but peaked again at M5.2 at ~16h UT. An R1-R2 radio blackout is still affecting South Atlantic and South American regions. There's currently no sign of a CME. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Solar Flare Alert: A M6.6 flare peaked at 10h03 UT 01 Feb from AR4366 (the active region I mentioned last night). A moderate R2 radio blackout affected the south of Africa. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Geomagnetic conditions are quiet. New sunspot region 4366 is showing the most potential for large flare activity. It's currently rotating towards center disc. #spaceweather #g7izu Video: https://universeodon.com/@g7izu/115991639127168723

Space Weather Quiet geomagnetic conditions this week may be interrupted during the next 24-48 hours by a fast solar wind following the passage of a coronal hole. High-latitudes may see up to G1 conditions, mid-latitudes may see active conditions from late on 27 Jan to 29 Jan (UT).

Space Weather The fun is over for now, the solar storm has ended. The solar radiation storm has also reduced below S1 level this afternoon (UT), having reach up to S4 level.

Space Weather An M3.4 flare peaked at 07h12 UT 22 Jan. It originated from AR4349, in the south-east quadrant. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Current contact reports by amateur radio operators via auroral mode across Europe. Strong geomagnetic storm conditions continue. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather Current amateur radio auroral propagation reports. G4 conditions continue. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather Geomagnetic storm continues... These graphs are pretty incredible. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather Geomagnetic Storm: We're back up to G4 conditions again! The solar wind speed is still up near 1,000km/s. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather A few webcam captures from Northern latitudes. Seasoned space weather people are saying WTF! This event is off the scale in many respects. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather The CME has arrived! It's a biggie! #spaceweather #g7uzu

Space Weather An severe S4 solar radiation storm is in progress.

Space Weather A strong S3 solar radiation storm is in progress. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Incoming CME NASA ENLIL solar wind models are suggesting a significant solar storm following last night's X1.9 flare. It's looking possible for Kp9 levels (G5) with storming lasting more than nine hours from the early hours of 20 Jan.

Space Weather The X-ray flux has finally fallen below M-level after more than four hours, following the earlier X1.9 flare. A minor S1 solar proton radiation storm is now in progress. HF conditions in polar regions will start to be degraded. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather The >=10MeV proton flux is rising. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Solar Flare Alert: A significant solar flare is in progress. Xray flux is now at X1.6 and is rising. A strong R3 radio blackout is affecting S America/Pacific regions. A significant radio burst is associated with this flare.

Space Weather A G1 geomagnetic storm is now in progress. Aurora is visible at high latitudes. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

Space Weather A large and amusingly-shaped coronal hole is now facing Earth. The fast solar wind from this, plus the effects of the CME produced on the 14th will cause geomagnetic disturbances between approx 17-19 Jan.

Space Weather Possible incoming CME: An event at active region AR4340 near the center of the solar disc at around 23h30 UT 14 Jan caused coronal dimming and probable CME. There's currently a chance of a glancing blow with Earth from this CME on 17 Jan. #spaceweather #g7izu

Space Weather Various aurora webcams are mostly showing the sky washed out by the bright moon. Aurora would need to be extreme strong to break through. #spaceweather #aurora #g7izu

The M7.1-flare today was quite eruptive! It even degraded HF/VHF radio bands on Earth's dayside for over an hour. The R2-level radio blackout was most intense over South America as expected for summer in the southern hemisphere. Expect noise on the dayside bands to remain moderate to high this week.
