SOLAR WATCH * Huge X8.2 Flare Sept. 10, 2017! (Updated Daily)

I was getting ready to sleep and so I must.......

But here's a few useful links for those so-inclined to follow developments.

This again came from the small spot north of the Big Guy....same spot caused the M1 and big CME.

I don’t understand that graphic at all???

CME IMPACT SPARKS GEOMAGNETIC STORM: As predicted, a CME hit Earth's magnetic field on Oct. 12th. The impact at approximately 02:30 UT sparked a G2-class geomagnetic storm. Auroras spread across northern Europe, Iceland, Canada, and multiple northern-tier US states.

In Maine, the auroras were so bright, meteorologist James Sinko was able to photograph them using nothing more than his cell phone:

"I took this picture with my Samsung Galaxy S20FE," says Sinko. "The display was dynamic, producing many curtains and pillars."

Across the border in Saskatchewan, Frank Lang used an actual camera:

"These are the best colours we've seen in years around Saskatoon," he says.

This is how the solar wind around Earth reacted when the CME shock passed by:

Abruptly, the solar wind speed increased by 120 km/s. At the same time, the plasma density tripled, and the temperature increased almost 10-fold. These are signs of a classic direct hit by a CME.

The storm's G2-category apex may be over now, but lesser G1-class storms are likely for the rest of Oct. 12th. High-latitude sky watchers should remain alert for auroras.

Wow!

Where are on that chart that you shared with me? BELOW

We were at a 6

Thank you!!!

I'm TOAST at 7!!

We are at a kp 6 as Simple27 reported.

However, (imho) some of the information recently has
been "tweeked" to avoid public upset...very much
as you see NASA scrubbing certain timeframes for
their solar videos and USGS "downgrading" quakes.
(Are you noticing that USGS is NOT even reporting the
bigger 4.0 pt. quakes in the Canary Islands?...THAT is
what I'm talking about.)

You need to keep that in mind when dealing with
our public information now and LISTEN TO YOUR
OWN BODY. We appear to be in a whole "different world"
where TRUTH in just about anything is being skewed.

Right now as "sensitives" my spouse and I have been
having definite symptoms that are on that chart (I
won't go into what...but we are feeling it.) We try
to minimize our movements in public and take naps
when the KP gets "nasty" like that. All I can suggest.

I remember an interview that The Camelot Group did
with Dr. Paul LaViolette way back in 2017. They asked
him in the interview if there were ANY WAY WE WOULD GET
A WARNING ABOUT AN IN-COMING "GALACTIC SUPER WAVE."

The video is on my older thread from 2014 when the
Voyager I picked up certain radio signals that were a big
deal back then and they wondered if THAT SIGNAL was a
Galactic Super Wave warning:
Thread: Updated 2-22-2020 Pg.15! NASA: "Tsunami-Energy-Waves" caught by Voyager 1 In-bound! Is This First Sign of "The Wave?" Video

Laviolette said something to the effect that (paraphrasing):
"In a hypothetical situation I could imagine off-world entities
who are greatly more advanced than we are...might have
installed certain technical devices in space between the
solar system and the center of the Milky Way (the source
of the Galactic Winds which bring the main impact of a
Galactic Wave toward Earth.) And These "devices" might be able
to be an early-warning system to warn us to get ready.

If what Suspicious Observer's Ben Davidson is reporting
in this video has to do with THIS WARNING from Dr. LaViolette
--then this is an extremely important revelation. It would
be WELL ABOVE THE "PAY GRADE" OF MOST AMERICANS to be able
to received, however. It would probably be only reserved
for high-tier scientists to be privy to.

I watched the S.O. video where this tictock clip was
sourced==and NOW I am thinking that this was just a
way Ben Davidson has to "prank" his suscribers. What comes
after that TicTock clip is a little sign saying: "Let's
go BRANDON." And if you know where THAT phrase came from
(the crowd was shouting "f--k" Joe Bidon" and the NEWSCASTER
did damage control on this by telling the audience the
crowd was shouting to one of the racecar drivers--Brandon.)
It's possible the announcement was a POLITICAL SATIRE moment
for Davidson. lol!

B 9.7 flare and CME from NW limb (AR2885).

CME is not Earth-directed.

CO-ROTATING INTERACTION REGION: Geomagnetic unrest is possible on Oct. 18-19 when a co-rotating interaction region (CIR) is expected to hit Earth's magnetic field. CIRs are transition zones between fast- and slow-moving streams of solar wind. Sharp, shock-like density gradients and enhanced magnetic fields in CIRs often do a good job sparking Arctic auroras.

AURORAS AT 35,000 FT: Young Solar Cycle 25 is gaining strength. Count the crew of this flight to Alaska among the believers:

https://imgur.com/ZIKbrAH

"While flying from New York City to Anchorage on Oct. 12th, we saw auroraa nearly the entire flight," reports Terry Brown, who photographed the display using his iPhone. "The colors and the movement were the best everyone in the crew could ever recall experiencing."

The auroras appeared shortly after a CME struck Earth's magnetic field, sparking a G2-class geomagnetic storm. It was one of the strongest storms in years, but only a fraction of what is expected as Solar Cycle 25 continues to intensify in the years ahead. Solar Max is expected in 2024-2025. Tip for flyers: Select the window seat!

No sooner than AR2882 quietly departed the Earth-facing disk, we have a new large alpha spot coming over in the SE limb.

I believe this will be 2886, saving our streak of non-spotless days.

View this with hopeful optimism for an eventful week.
