A solar storm, especially a very strong one, could cause problems in energy and communication infrastructure. https://t.co/IPYDvuTlse

The Carrington Event was one of the most impressive solar phenomena ever recorded. The event occurred between August 28 and September 2, 1859. The event was so intense that the northern and southern l

An impulsive X4.2 flare occurred at 12:13 UTC from Region 4366. No CME signatures have been identified in imagery at this time.

Check out the INSANE growth on 4366 that's happened since just yesterday! It just keeps getting bigger while staying compact because new magnetic flux keeps pushing through the intermediate regions. The risk of a modern Carrington Event is incredibly high right now...

The latest X8.1 flare was eruptive you might have expected. It was a big filament (cool material) eruption. It was also seen as a coronal wave. We need to wait for more coronagraph data to say if/when the associated CME will arrive, but it will probably on Feb 4.

Region 4366 produced another strong X8.1 (R3) flare this evening at 6:57 pm ET. Modeling of the associated coronal mass ejection(s) indicates that a bulk of the material will pass by Earth to the north and east late on the 05 Feb UTC-day.

This active region has an enormous potential for a very large eruption.

AR 4366 has grown into a complex sunspot group. However, despite producing solar flares from M1 to X1 levels there has been no clear evidence of coronal mass ejections as of yet. However, this region will be the one to watch as the week continues. https://t.co/zXDgA15LKA

An X1.0 (R3) class solar flare occurred from Region 4366 at 12:33 UT.

And again..! The probability of an X-class solar flare is expected to increase in the next 24 hours.

Active Region 4366 produced an M6.64 (R2) class solar flare at 10:02 UT. This active region continues to develop and evolve at a steady pace as it has done so over the past 24 hours. Additional M-class flares seem to be likely at this time.

Scientists have long relied on tree rings to learn about ancient solar storms, rare bursts of high-energy particles from the Sun that can disrupt satellites, power grids, and communication systems across our planet. https://t.co/fw0AZaxJ4Y

Just after sunset near Flagstaff, Arizona, a developing storm cloud caught the last light of day in a rare way. As the Sun dipped below the horizon, its rays passed through a thin veil of high-altitude ice crystals above the storm. Instead of a simple glow, the light split and

Everyone across the world are now regularly witnessing the northern lights, in locations that have NEVER before seen them, we’re told this is because of a Solar Cycle. What do you think is really causing it?
