CME Arrival at Earth has Occurred and Warnings have been Issued
Oct 12, 2024 · The anticipated coronal mass ejection (CME) arrived at Earth at 11:15am EDT at nearly 1.5 million miles per hour. The CME strength and structure are being closely scrutinized for potential geomagnetic storm intensity, but, G3 levels are now expected due to the magnitude and potential of the CME, therefore G3 or greater warning has been issued.
Sun news: X flare! Activity rockets to high - EarthSky
Dec 29, 2024 · Two coronal mass ejections are headed to Earth. They were hurled by the sun during M flare events, one associated with an M8.9 flare by AR3932 on December 23 and a second associated with a...
M9.0 solar flare with earth-directed CME | SpaceWeatherLive.com
Dec 23, 2024 · Sunspot region 3932 produced an M9.0 (R2-moderate) solar flare today which peaked at 11:12 UTC. The solar flare was fairly impulsive but it was associated with a Type II radio emission indicating the possible launch of a coronal mass ejection something which we can confirm now thanks to SOHO/LASCO coronagraph imagery.

Oct 2, 2024 · The sun has unleashed an enormous X-class solar flare, temporarily triggering a radio blackout above parts of the U.S. and unleashing a hefty coronal mass ejection (CME) that will likely slam...
Coronal Mass Ejections - NOAA / NWS Space Weather Prediction …
Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are large expulsions of plasma and magnetic field from the Sun’s corona. They can eject billions of tons of coronal material and carry an embedded magnetic field (frozen in flux) that is stronger than the background solar wind interplanetary magnetic field …
G4 (Severe) Reached - NOAA / NWS Space Weather Prediction …
Between August 8-10, 2024, five Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) were observed leaving the Sun, prompting geomagnetic storm watches. The CMEs reached Earth over the weekend (August 11-12). CMEs, which are massive eruptions of solar material, can trigger geomagnetic storms upon arrival at Earth, potentially impacting various technologies.
