The Snarky Solar Observer of Bhang Bhang Duc | And as we are an LGBT supporting community we will say goodbye to you. Ye gods the trolls are coming out of the woodwork earlier and earlier. | |
The Rogue Nation of Greynne | Where does one find out the direction of these solar flares, if I may ask? The SMS service I subscribed to tells me about flares, but doesn't provide direction and time to CME impact. I looked at spaceweather.com and science.nasa.gov and couldn't find that information on either. The last weekend practically shut down my ham radio setup, so I'm hoping to have a bit of warning so I can disconnect things. | |
The Snarky Solar Observer of Bhang Bhang Duc | Hey Greynne, I tend to use Space Weather Prediction Centre. That gives live data from GOES satellites on X-ray flares and actual radiation conditions at Earth including radio blackouts (24 hour maximum, current and predicted). The website is at https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/homepage. The X-ray flares data I use when I’m observing the Sun in H-alpha - is that bright spot a flare or just a particularly bright area. |
