An X8.2 X-Ray flare (R3-Strong radio blackout) occurred on 10 September at 1606 UTC (1206 ET). The source region was Region 2673, now located just around the visible disk. This R3 event produced a rapid increase in relativistic proton levels which are currently above the S2 (Moderate) threshold. Radio blackout in North & South America & West Africa. X8.2 Solar Flare / Radiation Storm A major X8.2 solar flare for a parting shot? This event was just observed peaking at 16:06 UTC around region 2673, now located off the west limb. A Strong (G3) level radiation storm is now in progress as particles ejected outwards following the blast stream past Earth. Another massive coronal mass ejection (CME) is visible in STEREO imagery, but will be mostly directed towards the west. http://www.solarham.net/ http://www.spaceweather.com/ Clips, images credit: NOAA/SWPC, NASA/SDO, ESA/SOHO & STEREO Music credit: Broken Reality by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...)
