Latest Space Weather News Bz South / Geomagnetic Storm Watch April 16, 2024 @ 17:20 UTC The Bz component of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) carried past Earth via the solar wind has drifted to a south pointing position. Elevated geomagnetic activity (Kp4) is currently being observed with a chance for minor (G1) geomagnetic storming now in the forecast. Aurora sky watchers at higher latitudes should be alert during the next 12-24 hours. Space Weather Update April 15, 2024 @ 20:00 UTC Solar activity remains at moderate levels with a number of M-Flares detected on Monday. The largest of these was an M4.0 solar flare within the past half hour (19:32 UTC / Apr 15) around AR 3639 in the northeast quadrant. This region was also responsible for the majority of M-Flares today and a number of minor C-Flares. So far non of this activity looks to be associated with Earth directed eruptions. AR 3634 in the northwest quadrant also produced a low level M-Flare at 14:04 UTC (Apr 15). There is currently at least 10 numbered active regions on the Earth facing side of the visible solar disk. The latest solar flare threat risk is at 60% for additional M-Flares and a 5% chance for an isolated X-Flare. Please note that the X-Ray graphic on the SolarHam website is still not updating properly. This is stored on the NOAA/SWPC server and hopefully it is fixed soon. 3615 Returns April 13, 2024 @ 10:45 UTC Our old friend AR 3615 is now turning back into view and is looking nothing like it once was. Despite the heavy decay, an impulsive M2.4 solar was produced this morning at 05:02 UTC (Apr 13). We will get a better look over the course of this weekend. All other Earth facing sunspot regions have been for the most part stable.
