The large Sunspot area, designated AR3712, continues to grow and now exhibits a mixed polarity magentic field. This could result in flares and solar winds causing radio disruption and auroral activity on Earth. 06-17-2024 Palm Springs California
The large Sunspt area is designated AR3712. Covering an area five times the surface of the Earth, it had greatly increased in size in the last 24 hours. Flares and magnetic complexity could bring Auroral activity and radio blackouts. 06-15-2024 Palm Springs California
Expected today, severe geomagnetic storms on Earth resulting from at least five coronal mass ejections (CME). The result will be radio blackouts and high auroral activity. The source for much of it is sunspot area AR3664, which has doubled in size in the last 24 hours. It is now 14 times larger than the area of the Earth. 05-10-2024 Palm Springs California
Solar activity remains very high with more X-flares, the highest category, producing Coronal Mass Ejections (CME). The large Sunspot area, designated AR 3664, is now seven times the size of the Earth and made up of 62 individual Sunspots. My photograph from this morning. 05-08-2024
The third day of very high solar activity. The Sunspot areas have produced a number of X-flares, the highest category, as well as other smaller flares. Active conditions are expected to continue with Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) and high speed solar winds from Coronal holes. The Earth can expect to see Geomagnetic storms disrupting radio and increased Auroras. 05-07-2024
From this morning, 14 Sunspot regions make this the largest number so far in this Solar Cycle 25. These Sunspots have been throwing off Coronal Mass Ejections combimed with a fast Solar wind are causing strong geomagnetic storms on Earth. Auroras have been seen as far south as Pennsylvania, Oregon and Iowa. 04-24-2024
Sunspot Region AR3615 in the last 24hrs has increased in size 50% and now made up of 63 individual Sunspots. It is 3,360 million square kilometers Almost 20 times the size of the Earth. It continues to generate flares and geo-magnetic storms. March 25 2024 Palm Springs California
Sunspot region AR3615 has more than doubled in size in less than 24 hours. It is actually 54 individual Sunpots covering an area almost 5 times larger than Earth. It has produced numerous flares and Coronal Mass Ejections and is expected to continue, causing radio blackouts and Auroras. March 24 2024 Palm Springs California
Numerous large Sunspot regions after the last week with almost none. It is expected to create numerous flares, Coronal Mass Ejections, and high speed Solar Wind according to EarthSky.com. 11-23-2023 Palm Springs California
After a number of days with minimal Sunspot activity, three Sunspots broke into greater numbers and rotated into view. This could result into more Auroral activity and geomagnetic storms. 11-21-2023 Palm Springs California.
