This is starting to annoy me . It's been only a few hours and bam ! pictures replaced , missing and so on . They must be really alerted if they are paying that much attention.

The biggest flare was a 6.4 M-class with a bulk-velocity of under 400 km/sec.
This is a lower to medium energy event, which earth's mag shield will handle easily. Nothing to worry about. Are you getting nervous Swami? |

One BIG flare and I smell like old melted Dutch cheese. ![]() For flares we are going to experience, in the near future, and may survive, its useful to "start" thinking about how to save the unshielded electronic equipment we all have. |

But nevertheless :
Active Region Summary Solar Activity Level: HIGH 2-day Flare Index (entire sun): 175 X-Class Flares: 0 M-Class Flares: 4 C-Class Flares: 23 http://2012info.ca/EarthWatch/Solar_Observatory.php And I can only see solar activity increasing . We have 4 M-class flares already and more to come surely .
