2/9/24 – from Space Weather Today:

MAJOR X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE

Today at 1314 UT, the sun produced one of the most powerful solar flares in years, an X3.4-class explosion from just behind the sun’s southwestern limb. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) recorded the extreme ultraviolet flash:
The source of the flare appears to be departing sunspot AR3575. Because the blast site was eclipsed by the edge of the sun, the flare was probably even stronger than its X3.4 classification suggests. This was a big explosion.

Back in the freezer

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2024

Ice sheet surface melt on the Antarctic Peninsula abruptly dropped in mid-January and remained low through February 15. By contrast, melt day totals for the season were above average for the northern Larsen C and George VI Ice Shelves. Above average melting was also observed in the Roi Baudouin and Brunt Ice Shelves. The Amery, Abbot, Sulzberger, and Ross Ice Shelf regions had below average melting.

2/23/24 – from Space Weather:  

THREE X-FLARES, ZERO CMES: Giant sunspot AR3590 is living up to the hype. In only 23 hours spanning Feb. 21-22, the active region unleashed three powerfulX-class solar flares (X1.8, X1.7 and X6.3). The X6.3 flare is the strongest of Solar Cycle 25, so far, and the most powerful flare since the great solar storms of Sept. 2017.
Extreme ultraviolet radiation from each flare ionized the top of Earth’s atmosphere, causing shortwave radio blackouts over Hawaii (late on Feb 21st), Australia (early on Feb. 22nd), and Hawaii again (late on Feb. 22nd). Mariners and ham radio operators in those areas may have noticed loss of signal at all frequencies below 30 MHz.
