Sol (Sun) and its phenomena

Solar activity sure increased big time today! The second X-Flare of the day, this time measuring X1.1 was just detected around a new region that is hiding just off the southeast limb. It looks like we now have two active regions that could potentially provide high solar activity over the next week or so SolarHam.com
At TC of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences mentions something interesting...
It can also be noted that the very fact of the Sun producing two consecutive X flares is quite rare. In the first quarter of the 21st century, just over 240 X-class flares have been recorded on the Sun, which means they occur on average less than once a month. This year, the last time something similar was observed was on January 3 and 4, when 3 X-level flares occurred within 24 hours. But even then, the intervals were about 10-12 hours. From this point of view, the recent event is unique at least on a yearly scale, and most likely over a longer period of time.

Comet 2024 G3 (ATLAS) was near, reached perihelion on January 13th and on January 2, increased it's brightness.

Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) reached its perihelion on September 27, 2024 and there was an X4. 5 solar flare on September 14

This two and 3I/Atlas coming from the Oort Cloud, wonder if they are kind of differently energized due to their long period trayectory.

● Almost X flare

AR 4274 produced an M7.4 flare peaking around 11:15 UTC today. A broad CME was launched as well with an Earth-directed component. Coronagraph imagery shows a full halo eruption, but the bulk is headed away from Earth. Models will help gauge an impact time for this CME. Vincent Ledvina

There is so much activity it is hard to keep track of everything! So far, we have THREE CMEs with Earth-directed components and a coronal hole all cooking up some potential geomagnetic storming this week/weekend. Vincent Ledvina
 
A plasma cloud, produced by the recent M7.4 solar flare, will pass close to Earth during the night of November 7 to 8, according to the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Mathematical modeling and visual inspection confirm the arrival of a large solar plasma ejection towards Earth on Friday, November 7, from the M7.4 flare that occurred today in the afternoon, around 2:00 PM Moscow time. In total, three strong solar flares have been recorded over the past 24 hours, including two events of the highest magnitude X — the first since mid-June of this year. The surge in solar activity was the result of several large sunspot groups appearing on the visible side of the Earth. These high explosive activity was detected while they were still on the far side of the Sun.
The dense central parts of the flare emissions are still pointed past Earth, so we're talking about a moderate edge impact. A direct frontal approach from the plasma clouds will only be possible starting Friday or Saturday, not earlier than in 2-3 days. (...) So, Earth's magnetosphere will likely have to confirm its protective performance characteristics by the end of the week.
 
The summary (AI) of Key Points of the last video from Stefan Burns: "Earth is at the CENTER of Something BIG About to Go Down", connecting the points of our cosmic surrounding, mentioned in above posts.

  1. Solar Activity Surge:
    • A major solar flare (M5.0) and follow-up M3.3 flare occurred, triggering a coronal mass ejection (CME). The CME may impact Earth in 3–4 days as part of a "partial halo" event.
    • Three active sunspot groups are rotating into an Earth-facing position, linked to heightened solar activity since June 19th and aligned with interstellar object 3I/Atlas.
  2. Comet Interactions:
    • Comet A6 Lemon reaches perihelion on November 8th near the ecliptic plane, creating a "dazzling tail" that may interact electromagnetically with Earth-facing sunspots (e.g., AR 4274). This alignment could amplify solar-terrestrial effects.
  3. Seismic Activity:
    • Recent earthquakes: Magnitude 6.1 in Kamchatka and 6.3 in Afghanistan within 24 hours, part of a broader pattern linked to a trans-equatorial coronal hole emitting high-speed solar wind. Historical data (July–October 2025) shows monthly seismic clusters tied to this coronal hole.
  4. Lunar and Planetary Alignments:
    • A full supermoon on November 5th (closest at ~356,000 km) precedes a new moon by November 20th. Mercury’s inferior conjunction with Uranus and Kazimi alignment create rare celestial configurations, potentially influencing geomagnetic activity.
  5. Taurids Meteor Stream Impact:
    • The Taurids meteor stream peaks November 4–9 (south/north components), with fireballs possibly exceeding dust-sized particles. This may coincide with increased auroras and satellite disruptions due to geomagnetic storms.
  6. Geophysical Impacts:
    • High-speed solar wind from a coronal hole correlates with seismic activity, including recent quakes in Chile, Afghanistan, and Kamchatka. Earth tides (from the supermoon) and magnetic field fluctuations may further stress fault lines.
  7. Planetary Weather Events:
    • Typhoon Kalmaegi approaches the Philippines as part of heightened global weather volatility linked to solar-terrestrial interactions.
  8. Health & Preparedness Advice:
    • Burns recommends grounding (earthing), granite therapy, breathwork, and avoiding sugar to mitigate energetic stress. He anticipates more X-class flares, geomagnetic storms, and seismic events in the coming weeks.
Interconnected Themes:

  • Solar activity (flares, CMEs) is amplified by comet-sunspot alignments and coronal holes, potentially triggering geophysical responses (earthquakes, auroras).
  • November 2025 marks a convergence of celestial events: supermoon, meteor stream peaks, planetary conjunctions, and solar maxima.
  • Historical parallels to the 1983–1984 solar cycle suggest heightened risk for extreme geomagnetic storms and seismic activity.
Conclusion: Earth is entering a period of intense cosmic energy interplay, with potential cascading effects on geology, atmosphere, and technology. Vigilance in monitoring updates and proactive health measures are advised.

ALERT: a second major plasma ejection towards Earth has just occurred

A second major plasma ejection into space has just occurred on the Sun. It is heading towards Earth in pursuit of the first one at a speed of about 1000 km per second.

The flare event has a rating of M8.65. The peak was recorded at 01:07 Moscow time.

The second cloud is even larger and faster than the previous one. It will hit Earth on Friday immediately after the first one, which it will catch up to and partially absorb along the way.

The final forecast for geomagnetic storms tomorrow will be recalculated several times and will only be finalized on Friday night, but if it only reaches a G4 storm level, that will be very fortunate. Based on the dynamics, soulless robots might even assign the highest geomagnetic storm rating of G5.
 
The M8.6 solar flare event earlier this evening is associated with a CME where the main bulk of plasma is heading to the north, however a faint halo component is also visible. This could contribute to an expected geomagnetic storm over the next few days thanks to an earlier halo CME already en route. SolarHam.com

Strong magnetic storms are occurring on Earth

Around midnight Moscow time, planetary-scale magnetic storms were registered on Earth. Currently, the geomagnetic Kp index ranges from G2 to G3, meaning from moderate to strong storms.

The cause of the storms is clear and, unfortunately, quite unpleasant. The Earth has been hit by plasma ejections from the very first solar flares that occurred 2-3 days ago, when the active regions were still at the very edge of the Sun and, according to forecasts, had no chance of affecting the planet from that position. This means that the plasma clouds are now being ejected not radially but with an initial offset toward Earth, and they also have noticeably larger spread angles and speeds than previously assumed in calculations. This leads to rather pessimistic considerations about the forecast for tomorrow.

The storm and disturbances will last about a day, or most likely will not stop at all, as tomorrow they will simply transition into the main phase, when the main masses of ejected plasma will begin to reach Earth, triggering even stronger geomagnetic processes.
