X1.5 Solar Flare + CME (6/10/2024) -

An X1.5 solar flare was produced by departing AR 3697 (3664) at 11:08 UTC (Jun 10, 2024). Despite shrinking in size, the region still remains potent as it turns behind the west limb. A coronal mass ejection (CME) is associated with the event and is heading to the west and away from Earth. Other than the radio blackout, no major impacts are expected. Perhaps in two weeks we will see whatever remains of the flare producing machine turn back into view once again. Bye for now! #spaceweather #solarflare #solarham
