Most active region on Earth facing Sun in years....
Few m class flares...

Background xrays have been above M for a few hours... Calling background because they aren't rising from a long duration event...

Just a steady climb into M-Class Xray range...

Haven't seen this in years...

I honestly don't recall the last time I saw a days worth of c-class background xrays...

2014 maybe?

Re: Most active region on Earth facing Sun in years....
today...Huge sunspot AR2673, which materialized with shocking speed over the weekend, is seething with activity. Today in Romania, solar photographer Maximilian Teodorescu captured this snapshot of plasma currents surging inside the sunspot's magnetic canopy--apparently on the verge of an explosion:

Currently knocking-out a good sized M-class flare! Earth facing even... might be worth watching the next couple/few days- not a normal occurrence at the bottom of a solar minimum like this.

These energies will fuel IRMA and the storms following
it.

We had a strong gamma ray burst today as well. Things
are sure getting strange.

Thanks for the update, OP.

cheers

Lot of crazy things lining up...

Hurricanes, NK, and an active region capable of intense solar flares and CMEs...
