This is the capture by the SCGO RadioJove radio telescope yesterday, an X2 class flare.
\nNot sure why we picked it up at all as 21:00utc-4=1700EDT.. the sun was still up but it was out of the beam.
\n From spaceweather.com:
\nActive sunspot AR3878 erupted again on Oct. 31st (2120 UTC), producing an X2-class solar flare. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured a spray of hot plasma emerging from the blast site:

A pulse of extreme ultraviolet radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth’s atmosphere, causing a shortwave radio blackout over the Pacific Ocean. Ham radio operators may have noticed loss of signal below 25 MHz for as much as 45 minutes after the flare.<\/p>\n

Update: This explosion did not produce a CME. Not all flares do. In fact, AR3878 has a habit of flaring without CMEs. As a result, no geomagnetic storms will result from this event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
