Papers from a recent NASA workshop on solar cycle 24 suggest that we are at or close to solar maximum and that this will be among the weakest peaks on record. By all conventional measures this has been an extremely quiet cycle. However, the analysis adds that most major events, such as large flares or […]

Several large and complex sunspot regions appeared during the period but none produced any sizeable solar flares. Solar activity was at low levels, with numerous C class solar flares taking place every day. The largest events were C8 class flares on the 10th and 14th. Solar flux levels increased from 152 units to 164 by […]

Every day a new sunspot region appeared, some small, some much larger and complex. Solar activity was low until a M1 class solar flare took on the 6th and the 7th, which increased activity to moderate. Meanwhile, at the opposite side of the Sun a large sunspot region was rotating into view and on the […]

Twenty seven minutes after the start of the period an X1 class solar flare took place, however, since then only a sprinkling of C class solar flares took place and then not on every day. Solar activity was high on the 25th due to the X1 flare but then declined to very low on the […]

Several large and magnetically complex sunspot regions were visible during the period but only one M class solar flare took place and that was a M7 on the 18th, however, numerous C class solar flares took place every day. Only one new sunspot region appeared during the week. Solar flux levels declined from 172 units […]
Propagation News – 20 April 2014
The number of sunspot regions increased during the period. 11 were visible on the 16th. Several developed in size and magnetic complexity, though solar activity remained at low levels when only large C class solar flares took place. However, late on the 16th, a M1 class solar flare occurred. Solar flux levels increased from 136 […]
