HERE’S PROOF THAT AUTUMN IS APPROACHING: Last night in Iceland, the sky exploded with auroras. “The lights were so beautiful,” says Jónína Óskarsdóttir, who sends this photo from Fáskrúðsfjörður:
SOLAR FLARE ALERT: 09/02/2026
Earth-orbiting satellites have just detected a M3.0 class solar flare at 02-Sep-2026 at 19:20:00 UTC. More information follows by email. An R1 (minor) radio blackout is possible on the sunlit side of Earth.
SOLAR FLARE ALERT:
Earth-orbiting satellites have just detected a M7.0 class solar flare at August 25, 2026, 10:02:00 UTC (5:02:00 AM CDT).
There’s higher potential for Cannibal CME’s when one flare closely follows another with increasing intensity. One overtakes another and the “2 made one” magnify the intensity of a Solar Storm.
The NOAA Dashboard offers video of previous flares. The latest GOES image shows an expanding Coronal Hole, adding Solar Winds to the Earth-directed CMEs.) UPDATE JUST IN WITH IMAGE AND DETAILS.
The Sun has produced 4 Solar Flares in the past 48 hours. Sunspot 4513 has been identified as the source for the first three and is likely the source of the most recent flare. Images and location of the most recent flare is forthcoming. 4513 now resides in geoeffective Earth-facing position, and will continue to be for the next 3 to 4 days.
SOLAR FLARE ALERT: Earth-orbiting satellites have just detected a M2.0 class solar flare August 25, 2026 at 01:26:00 UTC (August 24, 2026, 8:26:00 PM CDT). An R1 (minor) radio blackout is possible on the sunlit side of Earth.
Solar Eruptions
SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 08/08/2026
FILAMENT ERUPTIONS AND CMEs: Today, at least three magnetic fiements have erupted around the solar disk. This movie from NOAA’s GOES-19 satellite shows the two main events:
GOES Solar UltraViolet Imaging Satellite (SUVI) – Click for Animated Image
Earth-orbiting satellites have just detected a M1.9-Class Solar Flare, 30-JUL-2026, at 17:00:00 UTC.
17:00.00 UTC is Noon, 12:00 p.m. CDT
Comparing the SUVI image with the current Sunspot image, the erruption appears to have originated from Sunspot 4482. Sunspots in the neighborhood of the brightest spot on the SUVI image reside in the “danger zone” for a geoeffective blast that would be aimed at Earth.
Time will tell when Spaceweather.com receives the detailed forecast. Details should be posted soon on Spaceweather.com.
The realtime gallery will also be posting the effects of multiple CME’s that were already on the way, destined to arrive, July 30-31, 2026

Earth-orbiting satellites have just detected a M3.2 class solar flare at 26-Jul-2026 at 15:28:00 UTC.
An R1 (minor) radio blackout is possible on the sunlit side of Earth.
It’s hard to say which “quiet” part of the Sun produced the eruption. The Sunspot number and details will be forthcoming from Spaceweather.com.
It’s been TOO LONG since I heard this song. You probably haven’t heard it on the radio unless you are a golden oldie. It was released by The Association on May 1, 1967 (12 MULUC) – an Offering of Divine Understanding from Above. It reminded me of the Breath of Life and Breath of Spirit.
Check out Joanna’s post offered “With Love, Hope, and Perseverance”. Thank you Joanna.
Today’s “Quiet Sun”, GOES Solar UltraViolet Imager (SUVI)

THE SUN IS FLATLINING: The sun’s X-ray output is flatlining today despite the presence of four significant sunspot groups. Not one of the sunspots is flaring. Is this the calm before the storm or genuine quiescence? It feels like quiescence. Our prediction: A quiet weekend.
The Sun doesn’t appear to be dead. Time will tell.
SPACEWEATHER.COM NEWS: 07/23/2026
MINOR GEOMAGNETIC STORM IN PROGRESS: A minor G1-class geomagnetic storm is in progress on July 23rd as Earth moves through a high-speed (650 km/s) stream of solar wind. The gaseous material is flowing from a canyon-shaped hole in the sun’s atmosphere. High-latitude sky watchers might see auroras, especially in the southern hemisphere where winter darkness favors visibility.
