Space Weather

An X1.1 flare erupted from a new active region on the east limb, peaking at 15h20 UT 28 Mar (not 15h35 UT as previously stated).

After 1.5 hours the XRay flux is still above M-level, but is falling. The flare appears to be a filament eruption.

An R3 radio blackout affected the Caribbean, Central America and northern S America.

10cm, type II and type IV radio emissions and a coronal mass ejection were observed.

This flare marks the end of couple of fairly quiet weeks on the sun!
